title: [Percutaneous surgery of the lumbar disk].
abstract: Percutaneous discectomy is performed with an equipment which has proved reliable in urological surgery, namely dilators and optic fibers. Carried out under local anaesthesia, it empties the intervertebral disc by an extra-spinal route, thus reducing the risk of fibrosis which is almost constant when the interlaminar route is used. Its indications must be discussed with those of chemonucleolysis.
