A POSTERIOR FORAMINOTOMY (hemilaminotomy and medial facetectomy) is indicated for the treatment of nerve root compression secondary to posterolateral disc herniation or spondylotic foraminal stenosis. We describe the normal and pathological anatomy of the cervical neural foramen as well as our surgical technique, which has been highly effective in cases of cervical discogenic radiculopathy.
后路椎间孔切开术（半椎板切开术和内侧关节突切除术）适用于治疗后外侧椎间盘突出或椎间孔狭窄继发的神经根受压。我们描述了颈椎神经孔的正常和病理解剖结构以及我们的手术技术，该技术在颈椎间盘源性神经根病的病例中非常有效。
