BACKGROUND:　Currently,　anterior　transdiscal　access　and　posterior　interlaminar　approach　are　the　main　approaches　for　percutaneous　endoscopic　cervical　discectomy　(PECD).　To　overcome　access　shortcomings,　we　previously　described　a　novel　anterior　endoscopic　transcorporeal　approach　on　a　migrated　cervical　disc.　We　innovatively　introduced　bone　wax　into　endoscopic　surgery　to　aid　hemostasis　and　facilitate　the　process　of　drilling　an　intracorporeal　tunnel.　METHODS:　Five　patients　with　cervical　intervertebral　disc　herniation　(CIDH)　were　treated　by　PECD　via　the　anterior　transcorporeal　approach.　During　the　operation,　we　marked　the　punctured　tunnel　with　bone　wax　containing　indigo　carmine　as　a　guide　and　smeared　bone　wax　on　the　endoscopic　burr　to　aid　hemostasis.　RESULTS:　A　satisfactory　clinical　outcome　was　observed　in　all　5　patients　postoperatively;　pain　and　neurologic　condition　were　dramatically　improved.　Surgery-related　complications,　such　as　esophageal　injury,　vascular　rupture,　hematoma,　intervertebral　disc　infection,　or　postoperative　headache,　were　not　encountered.　A　computed　tomography　scan　was　used　to　observe　the　process　of　bone　healing.　At　3-month　postoperative　follow-up,　the　bone　defect　within　the　drilling　tunnel　had　partially　shrank　and　was　completely　healed　at　6　months　postoperatively.　CONCLUSIONS:　The　anterior　endoscopic　transcorporeal　approach　for　PECD　is　a　novel,　valuable　alternative　for　the　treatment　of　CIDH.　Bone　wax　could　indeed　facilitate　the　operation　by　guiding　the　drilling　process　and　instantly　controlling　the　bleeding　without　obvious　interference　with　bone　healing.　Long-term　follow-up　is　warranted　in　further　clinical　studies.
