Abstract |
The results of surgical treatment of 185 patients with osteochondrosis of the vertebral column were studied during 12 months who, after complex clinico-radial examination, were treated by puncture laser nucleoplasty of intervertebral disks using a diode laser. Stable positive effect was obtained in 84.3% of cases using minimally invasive manipulations.
