DEFINITION A herniated disc is a fragment of the disc
nucleus which is pushed out of the outer disc margin, into the spinal canal through a tear or “rupture”. It presses on spinal nerves, producing pain down the accompanying leg.
The compression and subsequent inflammation is directly responsible for the pain one feels down the leg, termed "sciatica.” A herniated disc is a definite displaced fragment of nucleus pushed out through a tear in the outer layer of the disc (annulus).

cardiomegaly suspect
Vertebra lumbal and sacral radiology photo
Spur (+) on corpus lumbal vertebra I-V Narrow intervertebra disc lumbal vertebra
III-IV,lumbal vertebra IV-V, lumbal vertebra V- sacral I
Corpus lumbal vertebra V looks more posterior than lumbal vertebra IV
Compression fracture (-) Good pedicle Interpretation : lumbal osteoarthritis
: suspect HNP LV IV-V,
LV V-SV I
: Spondilolisthesis LV IV-V
(Grade III)
MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
Corpus vertebra L4 shift to anterior relatively to L4 (listhesis) Osteophyte formation on all corpus vertebra lumbalis Decrease signal intensity at disc L3-4 and L4-5 Multiple protruding disc to posterior that push the thecal sac
on the medial side, right and left radix compression at L2-3, L3-4 and L4-5
Conus medullaris ended at L1 with normal intensity, no focal lesion. No higher pathologic signal intensity intramedullary
No thickening of flavum ligament, interspinosum ligament and longitudinal ligament.
No pathologic change on paravertebra soft tissue.
Conclusion : spondilolisthesis L4-5
: HNP L2-, L3-4 and L4-5 with right and left
radix compression
Corpus vertebra L2 shift to anterior relatively to L3 with the shift distance <25% than corpus diameter.
Spur seen on corpus vertebra lumbal. There were higher pathologic signal intensity on L2 and L5. Lumbal intervertebralis disc intensity was decreased. Narrowed intervertebralis disc L2-L5.
Conus medullaris at the same level of L1. No higher pathologic signal intensity on medulla spinalis.
No pathologic change on paravertebra soft tissue.
Conclusion : spondilolisthesis L2 stage 1 with L2 and L3 marrow edema : spondiloarthrosis lumbal with HNP L2-3 to L5-S1

RESUME Woman, 45 years old came to Surgery Policlinic in Koja Hospital with
complaint pain on back and waist that radiate to both her legs. She felt numbness and weak on both feet . 15 years ago she was hit by a motorcycle and fell into seated position. Then three months later she suddenly cant move her legs and but can get walk back a few months later.
From physical examination, her BMI was in overweight range. From the local status examination, there was scoliosis appearance, spine curvature deformity in palpation and there was decrease range of flexion(50°) and extension (15°) for the spine joint. For the sacroiliac joint, there was pain on movement. When doing the Straight Leg Raising test there was pain on movement at 45°. For neurological status, there was impairment when doing sensory test start from L4 for pain test and L5 for light touch. In motoric test, the score was 4 start from L3 for active and passive movement . On 45°, there was pain while doing the Laseque Test.
The abnormal in lab was the erythrocyte sedimentation rate was high (26).
There was cardiomegaly suspect when doing the chest –xray. From the Vertebra Lumbal and Sacral Photo, there were lumbal osteoarthritis, suspect HNP LV IV-V, LV V-SV I and Spondilolisthesis LV IV-V (Grade III). The MRI says that this patient was suffered from spondilolisthesis L4-5 and HNP L2-, L3-4 and L4-5 with right and left radix compression. While the echocardiogram interpretation was normal cardiac dimension, normal RV and LV function, normal heart valve and diastolic dysfunction grade 1.

CASE REVIEW
Vertebra held by ligaments
33 vertebrae
- 7 cervical
- 12 thoracic
- 5 lumbar

INCIDENCE
Approximately 80% of HNPs occur in the lumbar region. (fourth decades, higher in males)
Approximately 20% of HNPs occur in the cervical region and 20-33% of these have concurrent lumbar disc involvement. ( sixth decades, higher in males )
Less than 1% of the HNPs occur in the thoracic region. (fifth through sixth decades of life and the incidence is equal for both sexes.)
Pathologic lesions (i.e. spondylosis and spinal stenosis) have been noted in 50% of the cases with lumbar HNP.
Causes or Risk Factors
Accident or injury. Obesity. Activities that strain the back Sex (males). Cigarette smoking. Aging Genetics
Impaired mobility
MEDICAL MANAGEMENT
Physical Examination and History of Pain Neurologic Examination Foraminal Compressing test of Spurling Radiography Myelograph Spine x –ray Electromyelography (EMG) Nerve conduction velocity test Computed Tomography Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Pharmacologic Management
Analgesics Nonsteroidal Anti-
Inflammatory medications (NSAIDs)
Narcotic pain killers. Hydrocodone
(Vicodin) Naproxen
(Naprosyn) Tramadol (Ultram) Celecoxib (Celebrex)
Muscle relaxants Carisoprodol
(Soma). Metaxalone
(Skelaxin). Cyclobenzaprine

Steroids
Surgical management
Diskectomy Chemonucleolysis Microdiskectomy Laminectomy Spinal fusion Foraminotomy
Supportive Management
Diet and exercise Physical therapy Back braces Traction Use of devices Prevention of
complication of immobility
Health Education
Prognosis
A approximate 5% rate of recurrent disc herniation at the same level. Factors involved may be weight related level of physical conditioning, work or behavioral habits.
majority of disc herniations (90%) do not require surgery
approximately 5% of patients with herniated, degenerated discs will go on to experience symptomatic or severe and incapacitating low back. When this occurs, the prognosis is poor for returning to normal life activities regardless of age.
After a successful laminotomy and discectomy, 80-85% of patients do extremely well and are able to return to their normal job in approximately six weeks time).
