A surgical approach through the pedicle to protruded thoracic discs
J Neurosurg.

Abstract
Three cases of thoracic disc herniation presenting with signs of spinal cord compression are reported. The patients were operated on by an approach through a midline incision in which a pedicle is removed. Two patients were cured and one has improved.
