Percutaneous lumbar discectomy has been advocated as an alternate means of treating lumbar disc disease. A disc treatable by this method must not be free in the spinal canal and cannot be above or below the disc space. Magnetic resonance imaging, computed tomography, and discography all can be valuable in selecting patients for percutaneous lumbar discectomy.
经皮腰椎间盘切除术已被提倡作为治疗腰椎间盘疾病的一种替代方法。可用这种方法治疗的椎间盘在椎管内不能游离,且不能位于椎间盘间隙的上方或下方。磁共振成像、计算机断层扫描和椎间盘造影在选择经皮腰椎间盘切除术的患者时都可能有价值。
