Authors' recommendations:
Automated percutaneous lumbar discectomy (APLD) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that is used as an alternative to chemonucleolysis or open surgical methods for the treatment of herniated lumbar intervertebral discs. The goal of APLD is to remove herniated disc material that may be pressing on nerve roots and thereby causing pain and other symptoms.
