Journal of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery and Technique (JMISST) is the official journal of the Korean Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Society (KOMISS), Minimally Invasive Spine Surgeons Association of Bharat (MISSAB), Taiwan Society of Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery (TSMISS), Taiwan Society of Endoscopic Spine Society (TSESS), Brazilian Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery Society (BRAMISS), Latinamerican Endoscopic Spine Surgery Society (LESSS), Spanish Endoscopic and Percutaneous Spine Surgery Society (SECPEC), Malaysia Society of Endoscopic Spine Surgery (MSESS), and Thai Society for Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery and Techniques (ThaiMISST) for the publication of research results about minimally invasive spinal surgery (MISS). JMISST will consider submissions in areas of endoscopic spinal surgery, minimally invasive procedure for degenerative spine disease, pain intervention, minimally invasive surgery for spinal fusion or spine trauma, neuroscience, neurology, molecular biology and biomechanics etc. JMISST provides spine physicians and researchers with peer-reviewed articles on minimally invasive spine surgery to improve patient treatment, education, clinical or experimental research, and professionalism. In particular, minimally invasive spine surgery, including endoscopic spinal surgery, will be the most important field in the future spinal treatment. JMISST is the only journal in the world that is currently focused on minimally invasive spine surgery. We aim to lead the field of minimally invasive spine surgery to be developed in the future, and will contribute to providing a happy life for humans based on academic development.
