Abstract

Double crush root injury in the lumbar spine is a very rare condition. A 36-year-old female patient presented to our clinic with complaints of severe low back and right leg pain. Magnetic resonance imaging of the lumbar spine revealed a paramedian disc herniation at the L4-5 level and an extruded far-lateral disc herniation at the L5-S1 level. Both disc herniations were compressing right L5 root simultaneously. Microdiscectomies were performed at the L4-5 and L5-S1 levels. Postoperatively, she had complete resolution of her pain complaints.

Özet

Lomber bölgede double-crush kök yaralanması nadir görülen bir durumdur. 36 yaşında bayan hasta ciddi bel ve sağ bacak ağrısı şikayetleri ile kliniğimize başvurdu. Lomber omurganın magnetik rezonans görüntülemesi L4-5 sağ paramedian ve L5-S1 ekstrüde far-lateral disk herniasyonlarını gösterdi. Her iki disk herniasyonu da eş zamanlı sağ L5 köküne baskı yapıyorlardı. L4-5 ve L5-S1 mesafelerine mikrodiskektomiler uygulandı. Ameliyat sonrası dönemde hastanın şikayetleri tamamen düzeldi
