Comparison of results of 500 microdiscectomies and 500 percutaneous laser disc decompression procedures for lumbar disc herniation.
OBJECTIVE This article aimed to analyze the neurosurgical results of 500 patients treated with microdiscectomies and 500 patients treated with percutaneous laser disc decompression. BACKGROUND DATA It has been suggested in the literature that percutaneous laser disc decompression might be considered a serious and valid alternative to microdiscectomy in the treatment of patients with discogeni...

متن کاملThe Study of the Percutaneous Laser Disc Decompression
The purpose of this study is to discuss the temperature and stress distribution problem of the interverbral disc while the surgical operation of PLDD is processing. This study also further discuss the water content of disc changes with age to cause variation of thermal conductivity thermal expansion coefficient specific heat and related parameters, and the effect of thermal conductivity related...
متن کاملPercutaneous laser disk decompression: a review of the literature.
Sciatica, which is usually caused by herniation of an intervertebral disk, is a common problem with an annual incidence of 5 per 1000. In 60%– 80% of patients experiencing their first episode of radicular pain, the symptoms recede to a nondisabling level within a period of 6 weeks.
