The present report describes the case of a 48 year-old woman who had undergone two separate lumbar laminectomies for a L4-L5 disc. She was admitted for a recurrent sciatica of 6-months duration, which failed to respond to conservative treatment. Myelogram on admission was negative. However CT showed a far laterally placed bulging L4-L5 disc. The patient was successfully reoperated on using a paramedian posterolateral approach on the side of the lesion. The rationale for this approach is discussed.
