Abstract

The clinical experience with lumbar disc disease in 38 patients at a large children's hospital is reviewed. Thirty children underwent surgical treatment; eight patients were not operated upon. The surgical results were excellent, with 93% of the children cured or markedly improved on follow-up. The main differential aspects of lumbar disc disease between children and adults are emphasized.
