  • Title: [Control-lateral sciatrica after surgery for herniated disk].
    Author: Sicard A, Banai M.
    Journal: J Chir (Paris); 1976 Dec; 112(6):369-72. PubMed ID: 1026723.
    Abstract:
    A study of 1,427 case records permitted the authors to discover 10 cases of reoperation for sciatica which appeared on the opposite side after removal of a dischernia. A new hernia was noted in 6 cases, whereas radiculitis of unknown origin, appeared to be responsible in 4 cases. The 10 patients who became cured, either after removal of the hernia, or after decompression through the foramin. These few cases, in fact rare, may be considered as relapses and thus poor surgical results. The provide a contribution to the understanding of intervertebral disc disease and raise an interesting medico-legal problem.
