Case report: Intradiscal oxygen ozone therapy in uncontained lumbar disc herniation

Abstract

Percutaneous intradiscal oxygen ozone (O2O3) for contained lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is used as a minimally invasive alternative to surgery. This article reports excellent benefit in two patients with uncontained LDH following treatment with minimally invasive percutaneous intradiscal injection of O2O3. There is an urgent need for more research and awareness into this less expensive non-surgical out-patient treatment.
