[Chemonucleolysis of lumbar intervertebral disk herniation].

Area of Science:

• Neurosurgery
• Minimally Invasive Procedures

Background:

• Lumbar disc herniation is a common condition requiring effective treatment.
• Surgical interventions carry risks and higher costs.

Purpose of the Study:

• To highlight chemonucleolysis as a viable alternative to surgery for lumbar disc herniation.
• To emphasize the importance of precise indications and technique for optimal results.

Main Methods:

• Review of chemonucleolysis as a treatment modality.
• Analysis of factors contributing to successful outcomes.

Main Results:

• Chemonucleolysis provides a rapid, noninvasive treatment option.
• When indications are strictly followed and the procedure is technically perfect, excellent results are achieved.

Conclusions:

• Chemonucleolysis is an advantageous alternative to surgical treatment for lumbar disc herniation.
• Strict adherence to indications and technical perfection are crucial for successful outcomes.
