Herniated Disc

Last edit by Alaric Steinmetz on

Herniated discs are among the most common conditions in neurosurgery. They are classified as lumbar, thoracic, or cervical disc herniations, depending on their respective location. Lumbar disc herniations account for the majority of cases. Surgical treatment is not necessary in all cases; conservative measures such as pain management and physical therapy are often sufficient. However, emergency immediate surgical treatment is indicated in Cauda Equina Syndrome.
