Abstract
This chapter discusses the essential technology required to perform biportal endoscopic procedures. In addition, a brief description of brands currently involved in the development of biportal endoscopic systems for spinal surgery, finally, another technology that the surgeon could apply to UBE, is included. This chapter aims to give a glimpse of the technological advance around UBE as part of the basic concepts that the surgeon interested in biportal endoscopy should know.
