This term, "paracentral extruded disc and a free fragment" refers to the condition of a spinal disc, so this is actually a diagnosis of what a doctor found after examining a patient's spine with an MRI or CT scan. The level of the spine is not identified, so there is no way to know if this problem possibly exists in the neck (cervical spine), not very likely in mid-back (thoracic spine) region where this problem is rare, or most likely in the low back (lumbar spine) because this is where most disc extrusions occur in the lumbar or low back area.
It is easy to understand the whole picture of what happened once the individual terms are explained:
- Paracentral - this term refers to a part of the disc near the center of the spine, close to the spinal cord and spinal nerves, as opposed to outer ridge of disc that would be closer only to the spinal nerves
- Extruded - this term means that not only has the disc been injured and torn, but inner jelly-like material of the disc (nucleus pulposus) has leaked out into the surrounding area and has left the confines of the disc
- Free fragment - this means that when the disc tissue ruptured the rupture was so severe or extensive that pieces or portions of disc tissue broke off and are now moving about as separate pieces; this increases the degree of symptoms and complicates surgical correction of problem
In this case it could easily happen that the individual would experience at the level of the disc extrusion: extensive local pain, muscle weakness, numbness, tingling, radiating pain along the nerve, and more depending where the injury exists.

What is fragment free switching?
Fragment free is a variation on cut-through switching that partially addresses this problem by assuring that collision fragments are not forwarded. This will hold the frame until the first 64 bytes are read from the source to detect a collision before forwarding.This is only useful if there is a chance of a collision on the source port. Fragment-free switching is also known as runtless switching and is a hybrid of cut-through and store-and-forward switching. Fragment-free switching was developed to solve the late-collision problem.

What is fragment file?
It's a 'quirk' of the way Windows saves files to disc... When Windows saves a file, it just looks for the first available piece of free space on the disc - whether the file will fit there or not. It fils the available space with data from the file - then if necessary - looks for more free space. This continues until the file has been successfully saved. This splits (or fragments) a file into multiple pieces - which slows down the access time, as the computer has to search multiple places on the disc to find the data . Using a 'defrag' program 'joins up' all the file fragments into one larger piece of data - then saves it to an appropriately-sized area of free space. Regular disc defragmenting keeps your system running well, and up to speed.
