Massive lumbar disc herniation treated with a transdural approach and posterior fusion. A case report
Background
Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) at the upper levels (L1–2 and L2–3) is different from that at the lower levels with regard to clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes. Discectomy using the transdural approach is a good option for central LDH at the upper levels; however, postoperative instability and recurrence are the major concerns.
Case presentation
A 57-year-old woman experienced severe back pain and dysuria. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed a massive LDH at the L1–2 level. Despite conservative treatment for 3 months, her low back pain was not relieved. Posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) with bilateral facetectomy was performed, and the residual LDH was subsequently removed using the transdural approach. The patient’s preoperative symptoms were relieved after surgery.
Conclusions
PLIF followed by discectomy using the transdural approach is a safe and useful surgical method to treat a massive LDH at the upper levels.
