The
International Society for Minimal Intervention in Spinal Surgery (ISMISS)
was organized as a non-profit organization in 1990 under the leadership of
Professor Parviz Kambin, first President of ISMISS, in collaboration with
his European counterparts, Professor Adam Schreiber, Professor Mario Brock
and Dr. Jan Sheppard. Thus the term, "minimally invasive spinal
surgery" was coined. ISMISS has held regular biannual symposiums in
Philadelphia (USA) and Zurich (Switzerland). The membership and
participants have witnessed the evolution of percutaneous nucleotomy to
endoscopic fragmentectomy, foraminoplasty and segmental stabilization.
