Abstract
Discectomy with lasers is a technically easy procedure and permits a surgeon to place a predictably sized and configured defect in a predetermined position in the intervertebral disc. In a small series of patients, the procedure appears effective in controlling symptoms in a high percentage of patients. The efficacy of the procedure and wider acceptance will depend on the results of multicenter clinical trials.
