GELABERT-GONZALEZ, M.; SERRAMITO-GARCIA, R.; ARAN-ECHABE, E.  e  GARCIA-ALLUT, A.. Spontaneous resolution of a lumbar disc herniation. Neurocirugía [online]. 2007, vol.18, n.2, pp.138-140. ISSN 1130-1473.

Lumbar disc herniation is a common cause of lower leg radiculopathy and the most effective methods of treatment remain in question. Both surgical and nonsurgical treatments may provide a successful outcome in appropriately selected patients. The spontaneous resolution of herniated lumbar discs is a well-established phenomenon. The authors present a case of spontaneous regression of a herniated lumbar nucleus pulpous in a patient with radiculopathy.
