    Abstract:
    From 1983 to 1996, 354 cases of the lumbar intervertebral disc prolapse were treated by the microsurgical technique in our hospital. Among them, 330 cases were the simple prolapse of the lumbar intervertebral disc, the other 24 cases were complicated with the lateral recess stenosis. The application of the microsurgical technique has the advantage of its precision, shorter operative time, little surgical trauma, less bleeding, and quicker recovery. So the patients can usually get up and move around at an earlier time. Ninety-five percent of the patients acquired good results. It is suggested that the microsurgical technique is a relatively good operative method in the treatment of the lumbar intervertebral disc prolapse and the lateral recess stenosis.
