摘要：

In mid-February 1986, Peter Ascher and Daniel Choy performed the first percutaneous laser disc decompression (PLDD) at the Neurosurgical Department, University of Graz, Graz, Austria. It was planned to deliver 1000 J with a Nd:YAG laser to a herniated L4-L5 disc causing sciatica. At 600 J the procedure was terminated because the pain was gone. Since then, PLDD has spread all over the world, with procedures being performed throughout the entire spine, with exception of T1-T4 because these discs do not permit percutaneous access with a needle. The success rate has ranged from 70% to 89%, and the complication rate, chiefly discitis, from 0.3% to 1.0%. When successful, the return to normal work is on average 1 week. The long-term follow-up of 23 years has yielded a recurrence rate of 5%. © 2009 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.
