Imaging and Management Insights for Lumbar Disc Herniation and Radicular Syndrome

(1990) found that the largest extrusions showed the most resorption, while contained protrusions had the least. Similar findings were reported by Delauche-Cavallier (1992), Maigne (1992), Bush (1992), and Cowan (1992), who noted that young patients often exhibited … Continue reading Imaging and Management Insights for Lumbar Disc Herniation and Radicular Syndrome

Residual leg numbness after lumber decompression surgeries: A summary of research evidence.

Introduction: Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is the most frequent lumbar degenerative illness that causes patients to have redundant pain (Ravindra et al., 2018). Lower back pain (LBP) and sciatica symptoms, such as leg pain (LP) and leg numbness (LN), are common in patients with LDH (Deyo et al., 2016). In addition, LN is a major factor influencing clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction following decompression surgery … Continue reading Residual leg numbness after lumber decompression surgeries: A summary of research evidence.
