[Indications for reoperation in radicular syndromes following surgical removal of lumbar disk hernias (author's transl)]. 1978

F Brussatis

In case ischias-type pain persists or recurs following surgical removal of lumbar disk prolapses, it will be necessary to carefully weigh against one another as possible causes: disk prolapse recidivation, epidural or intradural cicatrization, and pseudoradicular pain in myotendinoses. Postoperative diskitis or spondylitis must also be considered as a possible cause.

D007405	Intervertebral Disc Displacement	An INTERVERTEBRAL DISC in which the NUCLEUS PULPOSUS has protruded through surrounding ANNULUS FIBROSUS. This occurs most frequently in the lower lumbar region.

D007796	Laminectomy	A surgical procedure that entails removing all (laminectomy) or part (laminotomy) of selected vertebral lamina to relieve pressure on the SPINAL CORD and/or SPINAL NERVE ROOTS. Vertebral lamina is the thin flattened posterior wall of vertebral arch that forms the vertebral foramen through which pass the spinal cord and nerve roots.	Laminotomy,Laminectomies,Laminotomies
D008159	Lumbar Vertebrae	VERTEBRAE in the region of the lower BACK below the THORACIC VERTEBRAE and above the SACRAL VERTEBRAE.	Vertebrae, Lumbar

D011183	Postoperative Complications	Pathologic processes that affect patients after a surgical procedure. They may or may not be related to the disease for which the surgery was done, and they may or may not be direct results of the surgery.

D011843	Radiculopathy	Disease involving a spinal nerve root (see SPINAL NERVE ROOTS) which may result from compression related to INTERVERTEBRAL DISK DISPLACEMENT; SPINAL CORD INJURIES; SPINAL DISEASES; and other conditions. Clinical manifestations include radicular pain, weakness, and sensory loss referable to structures innervated by the involved nerve root.
