%X <B>OBJECTIVE: </B>Introducing a suture repair technology, endoscopic double line suture repair technique, for iatrogenic dural injury during Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy (PELD) surgery.<BR><B>METHODS: </B>A patient with dural injury and cauda equina herniation during PELD surgery was treated with endoscopic double line suture repair technique.<BR><B>RESULTS: </B>A patient with dural injury and cauda equina nerve herniation during PELD surgery was successfully treated using double-line suture technique. After the repair, no obvious cerebrospinal fluid leakage and cauda equina nerve re-herniation was seen. During the postoperative observation period, the wound healed well and there were no complications related to cerebrospinal leakage. During the follow-up period (1 year), the patient reported significant symptom relief and no complications.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>This novel dural repair technology is safe and effective and can be used to treat dural injuries during PELD surgery.
