Three years experience with microsurgical technique in treatment of protruded lumbar disc.

The Authors report 120 cases of protruded lumbar disc operated on by microsurgical technique over the last 3 years. The operating technique is summarized and the indications for this type of surgery are discussed. Both immediate and long-term results are reported. Five patients were re-operated on because of recurrence in the same interspace. As the follow-up revealed there were favourable results, regarding especially the disappearance of pain and resumption of working activity. Microsurgical Lumbar Discectomy (MLD) represents an improvement and a valid alternative to standard technique: it enables to remove the disc with a very limited local damage which means a shorter period of convalescence and a better aesthetic result.

Myelography with metrizamide in the study of the lumbosacral tract.

The authors report their experience with Metrizamide (Amipaque) in the myelographic study of the lubosacrale) in the myelographic study of the lumbosacral tract. They compare their results with those obtained with other hydrosoluble contrast agents and correlate them with surgical findings. Metrizamide appears to be preferable to other hydrosoluble contrast agents due to its better radiological definition and because of the lower frequency of complications related to its use.
