[A case of recurrent sciatica following a free adipose tissue graft].
The authors present a case of recurrence of sciatic pain in a patient operated upon for lumbar disc herniation two days before. It was related to the migration to the vertebral canal of the fat tissue graft used ward for preventing fibrotic tissue invasion from outside. After removal of the graft, healing was uneventful.
