He has moderate disc space narrowing and desiccation at L4-L5, L5-S1, mild at L1-L2.
At L5-S1 there is moderate facet arthritis. He has mild broad-based disc bulge with a small central component disc protrusion. While there is no spinal stenosis, there is bi-lateral neural foraminal impingement.
At L4—L5 there is moderate facet arthritis with mild broad-based disc bulge and small central component disc protrusion. Again there is no true spinal stenosis.
degenerative annular bulging at L4-L5/L5-S1, some herniation at L4-L5, narrowing of central spinal canal at L4-L5 level. Desiccation of nucleus pulposus discs from L2-S1.
-epidural steroid injection
-facet and SI joint cortisone injections + trigger and pyriformis muscle injections
-Methadone Neurontin Fentanyl patches
- MRI#2 .
I have had several lamenectomies in the past at L4-L5 and L5-S1. I also had a fusion at L4-L5 in December 09. After the surgery I woke up with pain and numbness in left leg with partial foot drop and severe low back pain. In March I had MRI, which only showed extensive epidural fibrosis at L4-L5 surrounding thecal sac and exiting L4-L5 nerve roots.
Lumbar discs are desiccated with mod narrowing at L4-L5 and L5-S1. Mild anterior spondylosis is also noted at all lumbar levels.*At L3-L4, mild focal spondylostenosis id due to broad-based circumferential bulging of the disc with ligamentum flavum hypertrophy and mild facet hypertophic changes.There appears to be a tiny 2-3-mm synovial cyst associated with the left facet projecting torwards the paraspinal musculature.
The patient is status post bilateral laminectomy efects from L3-L4 level down to L4-L5 levels. There is mild congenital spinal stenosis in the mid lumbar spine. Bertebral bodis are normal in stature and in alignment. Mild disc desiccation is seen at L4-L5 level.
At L1-L2 level, minimal broad based posterior disc bulge is seen causing minimal compression of the thecal sac and mild bilateral neural foramina stenosis.
On the basis of MRI report, a neuro-surgeon, performed a surgery on October, 2007. (L4-L5 Laminectomy and L4-L5 Faraminotomy). Despite the surgery I am still having the same burning sensation and shooting pain. Most irritating is the shooting pain. The pain is sudden and intolerable. The pain aggravates while sitting, somewhat relieved by walking and lying down. No pain in the spine. Please help me.
I have a herniated disc l4 l5 with a fragment on the right side. Is it possible the fragment could heal itself without surgery? My family doctor said that unless the fragment is removed the tingle sensation and pain will continue, I was wondering if taking an anitinflamatory and physical therpay would help or hurt my situation.
there is asymmetric disc bulge to left which contacting the exiting left L4 nerve root.
3.L5-S1 there is a broad-based diffuse disc bulge as well as some facet hypertrophy causing mild to moderate narrowing of the left and mild narrowing of the right neural foramen.
Impression:Significant scoliotic deformityat the L4-L5 level as described above.
Asymmetric disc bulge to the left at the L4-L5 which may be contacting the exiting left L-4 nerve root. Please correlate with left L4 radiculopathy.
- There is right paracentral disc protrusion seen at L5-S1 level causing thecal sac and right root compression
- there is diffuse disc dulge at L4-L5 level causing bilateral exit canal narrowing sparing the exiting nerve roots.
- Schmoral nodes are seen at superior end plate of L4.
- Dessicatory changes are seen at L4-L5 & S1 levels.
- Normal facet joints and ligamentum flava.
Not much luck. This MRI reveals that I have a mild bulging disc at L3-L4 and L4-L5 with a small superimposed central disc herniation at L3-L4 mimimally asymmetric to the right, resulting in mild thecal sac compression. Also, I have narrowing disc space present at L4-L5 and there is a decreased disc signal on T2 weighted images at L4-L5 due to disk degeneration. AND, there is a straightening of the normal lordosis.
A left L3-L4 and L4-L5 decompressive lumbar laminectomies with diskectomy on the left side at L3-L4 and on the left side at L4-L5.
• 11/29/2006-EVALUATION: Doctor who did surgery on 11/20/2006 identifies now that he has partial foot-drop, which is unchanged since discharge.

We have been told by family doctors that this happened to my friend because of being positioned wrong or strapped in worng?

I have just had a discectomey on the L4-L5 lumber spine two week ago. The disc was herniated to the left side compressing the L5 nerve. I went to see a neurologist who did an EMG test on my legs and feet to test the nerves..After the test, I am now having pain in my left thigh and burning with some pins and needles pain at the bottom of the left foot. Could this pain be a result of the electric current from the EMG?
