Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare patients who underwent decompressiondiscectomy with pedicle screw fusion to patients who received decompressiondiscectomy without fusion
Detailed Description: Lumbar disc herniations are quite common and typically improve after surgical correction However some patients develop recurrent herniations at the same level Controversy exists as to why reherniated discs occur Moreover existing research does not settle the issue of whether a second decompressiondiscectomy or a repeat decompressiondiscectomy with pedicle screw fusion is the more successful treatment This study is designed to compare differences in patient-reported pain physical function and satisfaction between the two types of surgery patients
