Moderate broad-based right lateral protrusion refers to a condition where an intervertebral disc bulges outward towards the right side, affecting a wider area of the disc rather than a focal point. This protrusion can potentially compress nearby nerves or spinal structures, leading to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the corresponding areas of the body. The term "moderate" indicates that the protrusion is not severe but still significant enough to warrant attention or treatment.

Do you need surgery is you have small-to-moderate sized broad-based disk protrusion that is right paracentral?
If you are symptomatic then you may require surgery. Your spine specialist is the best judge.

What is a broad based central disc protrusion that is superimposed on moderate generalized disc bulging?
You have injured a disc in your back ( little shock absorbers between your vertebrae ), and it is bulging out at the site of the injury. Take care or it may become herneated or rurtured.
What does “ broad-based disc bulging slightly asymmetric to the left with associated posterior lateral spurs?
This is called a broad based disc herniation
What is broad based disc protrusion partially effacing the ventral sac?
A broad-based disc protrusion is a condition where the intervertebral disc bulges outwards, affecting a wide area rather than a localized point. When it partially effaces the ventral sac, it means that the protrusion is pressing against the front part of the spinal canal, potentially impacting the spinal cord or nerve roots. This can lead to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness, depending on the severity and specific location of the protrusion. Treatment often involves physical therapy, medication, or in some cases, surgical intervention.
What does it mean broad-based left paracentral foraminal disc protrusion combining with facet arthropathy creating mild overall central stenosis and left lateral redess stenosis at the l4-l5 level?
A broad-based left paracentral foraminal disc protrusion at the L4-L5 level indicates that the intervertebral disc is bulging outwards towards the left side, potentially pressing against nearby nerves. Coupled with facet arthropathy, which is wear and tear of the facet joints, this condition leads to mild central stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal) and left lateral recess stenosis (narrowing of the area where the nerve root exits). This combination can result in symptoms such as lower back pain, leg pain, or numbness due to nerve compression.
What is broad based protrusion?
Broad-based protrusion refers to a type of intervertebral disc herniation where the disc bulges outward over a wide area rather than at a single point. This condition can lead to pressure on adjacent nerves or the spinal cord, potentially causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the limbs. It is often identified through imaging studies like MRI and may require conservative treatment, physical therapy, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
What does mild generalized broad-based bulging of the disk C5-C6 with slight encroachment of both lateral recesses?

What is a broad-based 4 or 5 mm rightforaminal and extraforaminal disc protrusion?
A broad-based 4 or 5 mm right foraminal and extraforaminal disc protrusion refers to a condition where an intervertebral disc bulges outward at a width of 4 to 5 millimeters, specifically towards the right side of the spinal canal and the area where spinal nerves exit (foramina). This type of protrusion can compress nearby nerves, potentially leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the areas supplied by those nerves. It is often identified through imaging studies like MRI and may require conservative treatment or, in some cases, surgical intervention.

What is broad left sub articular 7mm disc protrusion with marked impingement on the traversing l5 root on the left?
A broad left subarticular 7mm disc protrusion refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc has bulged outwards in the left subarticular region, measuring 7mm in size. This protrusion is causing significant pressure on the traversing L5 nerve root on the left side, which can lead to symptoms such as pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs. The marked impingement indicates that the protrusion is severely affecting the nerve, potentially requiring medical evaluation and treatment options.
