The patient has intermittent
claudication for several months. The last week after physiotherapy
got severe right sciatica. In comparison to previously performed MRI
the new MRI performed after the right sciatica showed dislodgment of
the soft tissues from the right L3-4 & L4-5 facets compressing the
roots.
Decompressive laminectomy L4 and
partial of L5 and L3 was done with foraminotomy of both right L4 and
5 roots. All the soft tissues originating from the lateral masses
were removed and inspection of the disci L3-4 and L4-5 revealed
acceptable alignment.
