About this recording

The professor discusses diagnosing cervical disc herniation and choosing a surgical strategy. The description covers symptoms, anterior or posterior access, endoscopic discectomy, ACDF and postoperative care. The lecture is aimed at a medical audience; it can help patients formulate questions for a personal consultation.

What to clarify at your personal consultation
