Clinical and radiological instability following standard fenestration discectomy
Indian Journal of Orthopaedics, 10/12/09
Mascarenhas AA et al. – The favorable outcome of this study is in good agreement with other studies on microdiscectomy. Clinical instability in 12.04% of the patients is in agreement with other studies. Radiological signs of instability are seen even in asymptomatic patients and so are not as reliable as clinical signs of instability. Standard fenestration discectomy does not destabilize the spine more than microdiscectomy.
