Abstract
Eight cases of thoracic disc protrusion, observed over a period of four years, are reported. The literature was also reviewed. It is emphasized that in chronic midline disc protrusions a careful laminectomy without removal of the disc can give satisfactory results.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
