Abstract

The clinical usefulness of the myelography employing water soluble contrast materi al for the evaluation of lumbar disc derangement is well established here in Japan.With the above method, we scrutinize 226 cases out of a total of 235 patients with the intervertebral disc lesion from April 1973 to August 1977.The type exhibiting the root compression occupies as much as 57% of the entire cases in our study and we feel often great embarrassment at the decision of surgical or palliative management of this type of derangement.
