| pubmed-article:3057607 | pubmed:abstractText | 16 patients suffering from a herniated disc with purely lumbalgic manifestations were treated with chymopapain nucleolysis. The results were very good in 5 cases, good in 6 cases and poor in 5 cases. These data, along with those scattered in the literature, led us to consider nucleolysis as a treatment, probably valid, of a herniated disc in its purely lumbalgic form. | lld:pubmed |
