Treatment of Lumbar Disc Herniation for a man in 30s advised to undergo surgery - DST Method (Discseel™)

30s, Male

Inquiry Contents

Patient began to experience lower back pain since September last year. He was diagnosed with lumbar disc herniation at L3/4 disc level, and lumbar disc degeneration at L4/5 disc level.

In addition, a Schmorl node was discovered on the cephalic (top) endplate of L4. He was advised to undergo surgery, but learned about the non-surgery treatment at this hospital and wishes to proceed with treatment here if possible.

Diagnostic Imaging Results

Chief Complaint:
Pain in right side of the lower back from September last year. Diagnosed with herniated disc at L3/4, disc degeneration at L4/5, Schmorl node at L4.

Diagnosis:
Lumbar disc degeneration and lumbar disc herniation detected at L3/4 L4/5 disc levels. Particularly in L3/4, there is a decrease in disc volume, and a strong suspicious of injury to the annulus fibrosus.

Since there is a high possibility of an injury of the annulus fibrosus, the DST (Discseel™) Treatment is necessary as a disc treatment, with an efficacy rate of about 73-80% towards lower back pain.

Medical Condition(s): Lumbar Disc Herniation

Treatment Method

DST (Discseel™) Treatment at 2 disc levels.
