Abstract

This article presents and discusses the diagnostic (neuroimaging) and therapeutic (neurosurgical) procedures associated with the uncommon and rare epidemiological picture of lumbar intradural hernia in an elderly male patient. Which underwent an arthrodesis and laminectomy procedure, confirming the intraoperative diagnosis, but which later evolved into spondylodiscitis that culminated in myelopathy. Studies like this one aim to enrich the literature and the medical discussion regarding the clinical presentation of the rare condition of intradural disc herniation.
