Özet:

Disc herniations are the most common degenerative diseases in vertebral disorders that most often require surgery. They are mainly seen in the lumbar region, followed by the cervical and thoracic regions. Despite the development of minimally invasive surgical methods for the treatment of disc herniation, many of them are treated conservatively and medically. Spontaneous regression of disc herniation is rare during conservative treatment, but with the widespread use of magnetic resonance imaging, the number of these cases is increasing. Here, we describe a case that did not accept surgery for lumbar disc herniation, and had spontaneous regression of the intervertebral disc after six months of follow-up. Considering these results, patients who have no neurological deficit or acceptable radiculopathy with disc herniation could be treated with conservative methods and medical therapy. Additionally, morphological spontaneous regression of sequestrated disc fragments can be observed radiologically.
