Laser vaporization of herniated lumbar discs under CT-guidance

Results of 126 patients treatment because of foraminal disc herniation using laser vaporization were analyzed. In 96 cases operations were performed under fluoroscopic guidance, in 30 — under CT-guidance that let to increase surgery’s efficacy from 72 to 83%. Laser vaporization under CT-g...

description Results of 126 patients treatment because of foraminal disc herniation using laser vaporization were analyzed. In 96 cases operations were performed under fluoroscopic guidance, in 30 — under CT-guidance that let to increase surgery’s efficacy from 72 to 83%. Laser vaporization under CT-guidance might be reasonable alternative of microsurgery at patients with foraminal disc herniation.
