Abstract
Automated percutaneous discectomy is the most popular technique for intradiscal therapy of lumbar disc disease, with over 80,000 procedures performed worldwide to date. Success rates range from 55% to 85%, and complications are very infrequent (less than one percent). Very careful patient selection seems critical for success.
