    • Accurate diagnosis of lumbar pathologies is crucial for effective treatment.

    Observation:

    • This work describes typical CT findings associated with lumbar disc herniations, spinal stenosis, and tumors.
    • Diagnostic challenges in recurrent lumbar disc herniations are specifically addressed.
    • The study evaluates the utility of CT compared to traditional methods.

    Findings:

    • CT provides characteristic findings for common lumbar pathologies.
    • Diagnosing recurrent disc herniations presents unique difficulties.
