Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction01:29

Herniated Intervertebral Disc l: Introduction

7
Intervertebral disc herniation refers to the displacement of the nucleus pulposus (the gel-like inner core of the disc) through a tear or weakened area in the annulus fibrosus (the outer fibrous ring). The displaced disc material extends beyond the normal boundaries of the disc space and may compress or irritate nearby spinal nerve roots or, less commonly, the spinal cord.Etiology and Risk FactorsHerniation commonly results from degeneration, in which aging reduces disc hydration and...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Radiology
  • Spinal Surgery

Background:

  • Developmental malformations of lumbar transverse processes are well-documented.
  • Commonly observed anomalies include hypertrophy, overgrowth, and persistent epiphysis of the transverse process.

Observation:

  • This case report details the first identification of intertransverse pseudarthrosis, a previously unreported spinal malformation.
  • The condition was initially detected via X-ray imaging.

Findings:

  • Computed tomography (CT) scanning provided confirmation of the intertransverse pseudarthrosis.
  • Surgical exploration definitively proved the existence of intertransverse pseudarthrosis of the spine.

Implications:

  • This finding expands the spectrum of known lumbar transverse process developmental anomalies.
  • Highlights the importance of advanced imaging and surgical confirmation in diagnosing rare spinal conditions.
