title: [Hernia of intervertebral disc: treatment by manipulation under general anesthesia (author's transl)].
abstract: From 1956 to 1973 94 patients underwent altogether 104 manipulations of their spine under general anaesthesia 60% of the results were excellent and good; of the 40% remainder poor results more than half of the patients had to undergo a hemilaminotomy within one year. The time of observation was minimum 1, maximum 16 years, average 5.5 years. Having regard to a subtile indication we had no irreversible complications. The results was slightly better in older patients: otherwise there was no correlation with age, duration of suffering, myelographic disc-hernia or any other parameter.
