Far lateral microdiscectomy: a minimally-invasive surgical technique for the treatment of far lateral lumbar disc herniation.
Lumbar disc herniation arises when the annulus fibrosus of the vertebral disc fails, thus allowing displacement of the nucleus pulposus and other tissue. The term far lateral is used variably in the literature and usually refers to an extraforaminal displacement in the peridiscal zone peripheral to the sagittal plane of the most lateral part of the pedicle at the same level. Non-surgical treatm...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of far lateral lumbar disc herniation: a safe and simple approach.
Lumbar discectomy is one of the most commonly performed neurosurgical procedure. Far lateral disc herniations (FLDH) make up a minor portion of the total discectomy workload for spine surgeons. Due to their lower incidence, as well as their different anatomical positioning compared to the more common para-median disc herniation, the surgical procedures involved in releasing the neural compressi...
متن کاملRadical surgical treatment for recurrent giant fusiform thrombosed vertebral artery aneurysm previously coiled
BACKGROUND Fusiform aneurysms are rare (<1%) and the underlying pathophysiology is not well known. Endovascular coiling is the standard of treatment; however, a surgical procedure with vascular reconstruction by excluding the pathological segment of the vessel and restoring the blood flow, seems to be the most effective and definitive treatment. CASE DESCRIPTION We report a patient who presen...
متن کاملUnilateral isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy due to pathologically adherent PICA fusiform aneurysm – A case report
BACKGROUND Isolated hypoglossal nerve palsy due to mechanical compression by a vascular lesion is rare. CASE DESCRIPTION We report the case of a 72-year-old man who presented with a 4-year history of swallowing disturbance and subsequently progressively worsening left-sided tongue atrophy. He was referred to our department by a neurologist due a magnetic resonance imaging detected left verteb...
متن کاملExtreme-lateral, minimally invasive, transpsoas approach for the treatment of far-lateral lumbar disc herniation.
The authors present 2 cases of far-lateral lumbar disc herniations treated surgically via an extreme-lateral transpsoas approach. The procedure was performed using the MaXcess minimally invasive retractor system to access and successfully remove the disc fragments without complication. To the authors' knowledge, these are the first reported cases of using a minimally invasive retroperitoneal ap...
