متن کاملMinimally invasive open lumbar discectomy: An alternative to microlumbar discectomy.
BACKGROUND Lumbar disc surgery has come a long way since its fi rst description by Dandy in 1929. Evolving through the transdural approach and a laminectomy for the removal of a disc, it now surpasses the primal technique with essentially a minimally invasive procedure, an extradural approach without laminectomy. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study is to ascertain the effectiveness of Minim...
