The intradiscal condoliase injection stands out as the most biologically targeted and non surgical intervention currently available for lumbar disc herniation. It bridges a crucial therapeutic gap between conservative care and invasive surgery, offering durable pain relief with a single outpatient based treatment. Its mechanism is precise selectively degrading glycosaminoglycans in the nucleus pulposus and minimizing risk to the surrounding tissue. Beyonds symptoms control condoliase impact on quality of life, reduce recovery time and its cost-effectiveness make it especially promising in healthcare system seeking value based care. With consistent success rates of 70-78% in real world and clinical trial settings it presents an excellent option for well-selected patients. Nonetheless, long-term outcome data and broader internation adoption remain necessary to confirm its full therapeutic scope. As research advances and patient selection protocols improve, condoliase may reshape how clinicians approach intervertebral disc disorders and transforming pain management into precision enzymatic therapy.
