ABSTRACT

Introduction:

A new navigable percutaneous disc decompressor (L'DISQ-C, U&I Co., Uijeongbu, Korea), introduced in 2012, is designed to allow direct access to herniated disc material. The L'DISQ device can be curved by rotating a control wheel, directed into disc herniation treats, and decompresses contained herniated discs with minimal collateral thermal damage. This study reports the case of contained central disc herniation in a 34-year-old male with a 2-year follow-up successfully treated with navigable ablation decompression treatment (L-DISQ). Case Report A 34-year-old man presented to the outpatient department with a 6-month history of neck pain and bilateral upper limb radiation. His neck pain had increased progressively. At the time of presentation, his neck pain visual analog scale score was 7/10, and his neck disability index score was 30. The magnetic resonance images showed a single fluid-containing lesion with a hyperintense zone at the C4-5 levels with central disc herniation. The patient was successfully treated with the navigable ablation decompression treatment (L-DISQ) procedure.

Conclusion:

The navigable ablation decompression treatment (L-DISQ) is a valuable technique in treating contained cervical disc herniation with rapid pain relief and improvements in functional outcomes without any significant injury to surrounding structures. It is safe, precise, and effective in the treatment of symptomatic cervical disc herniations. Large, randomized, and multicenter trials are needed to explore the potential of the same technique further.
