Lumbar Anterior Discectomy

ID: exh50596c
This full color stock medical exhibit depicts anterior lumbar disc herniations at the L4-L5 and the L5-S1 levels that resulted in the need for surgical intervention. The first image illustrates a sagittal orientation view of the figure to highlight the area of injury. Directly next to this figure is a sagittal color interpretation of the lumbar spine. A series of images then illustrate steps from the anterior discectomy and fusion. These steps include the incision over the anterior abdomen, the removal of herniated disc material, the preparation of the disc spaces for cage placement, the insertion of the cages and the post-operative appearance of the lumbar spine.
