dc.description.abstractEmergent discectomy is indicated in the presence of cauda equina and severe, progressive neuromotor deficits (strength of recommendation [SOR]: C, expert opinion). Elective discectomy for sciatica caused by lumbar disc disease provides faster relief of symptoms than conservative management, but long-term outcomes are equivalent (SOR: A, a systematic review and randomized controlled trial [RCT]).eng
