Abstract
Anterior contralateral microdiscectomy without fusion achieves better exposure for resection of the offending foraminal or far lateral lesions, ventral osteophytes, or a disc fragment under direct microscopic visualization. Collapse and instability of the involved disc level can also be avoided via this less invasive technique.
