RESUMEN
Se describen los casos clínicos de dos féminas que habían padecido lumbociatalgias durante varios meses, por lo cual acudieron al Hospital Provincial Docente Dr. Joaquín Castillo Duany de Santiago de Cuba, donde se les diagnosticó hernia discal lumbar y recibieron seguimiento médico en la consulta de Neurocirugía por más de un año. Ante la negativa de ser intervenidas quirúrgicamente, se prescribieron esquemas terapéuticos convencionales y alternativos, así como fisioterapia. En ambas pacientes se evidenció regresión espontánea de la discopatía, lo que se confirmó mediante estudios evolutivos de resonancia magnética. Dicha correlación entre la mejoría clínica y la recuperación imagenológica del disco intervertebral no siempre sucede en la evolución de estos casos.
