Decompressive laminectomy L4-5. Neurolysis of the left L5 root was achieved. The extruded disc material of L4-5 was removed from under the axilla, which was pushing laterally the root by the huge extrusion. Left sided intradiscal cleaning L4-5 was achieved. The patient was put in Reverse Trendelenburg position with Valsalva maneuver and hyperventilation. No CSF leak. A free fat was harvested from the subcutaneous layer and covered the exposed parts of the root. to minimize postoperative scarring. Routine closure of the wound. Smooth postoperative recovery. The power of the left foot became normal.

There is still an estimated postoperative re-recurrence around 7% because the disc space is still not completely collapsed.
