Abstract:
Thirty-four patients were operated for dorsal disk pathology by a postero-lateral approach. The first cases have been followed-up for over 4 years and have shown this method to be reliable. When associated with the "harpoon" marker technique, the surgical indications now include not only patients with progressive radiculo-medullary symptoms, but also cases of sudden decompensation and those limited to radicular symptoms.
