English The concept of Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) entails recovery facilitation of patients who undergo surgery through the implementation of a multidisciplinary and multimodal perioperative care approach. By its application, ERAS improves the overall functional outcome after surgery while maintaining high standards of care. A review of the essential aspects of ERAS in spine surgery was undertaken. Special consideration was given to the risks and benefits for patients and caregivers, as well as the medical and economical aspects of this concept.

ABBREVIATIONS EBL = estimated blood loss; ERAS = Enhanced Recovery After Surgery; MISS = minimally invasive spine surgery; TLIF = transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion.
