[Unilateral paralysis of the abdominal wall musculature caused by thoracic intervertebral disk displacement].
Herniated thoracic discs are rare. Many cases present with local radicular or cord symptoms. We describe a case which became symptomatic by a unilateral paresis of the muscles of the abdominal wall. This radicular syndrome has only been described for lumbar disc herniations before. The differential diagnosis is discussed as well as the importance of myelography and the value of Myelo-CT.
