Posterior epidural migration of thoracic disc fragment.

Il Sup Kim¹, Sang Won Lee, Byung Chul Son, Jae Hoon Sung.

Abstract

Migration of a disc fragment to the posterior epidural space is rare, especially in the thoracic spine. Only four such cases of posterior epidural migration of thoracic disc fragments have been reported. The authors report a case of 66-year-old man who presented with back pain and right leg weakness due to posterior epidural migration of thoracic disc fragment. The patient was successfully treated by laminectomy and partial facetectomy with disc removal.
