ABSTRACT
The results of managing of 129 injured persons, treated for injuries of the lower-thoracic and lumbar portions of vertebral column, are adduced. The puncture transcutaneous vertebroplasty was done in 58 patients, stabilizing systems "Sekstant" were installed in 15, the "Mantis" systems--in 13, rigid systems by the open method--in 43. The pain syndrome dynamics was estimated in of the patients in accordance to the visual analogue scale. Positive dynamics in a frame of the pain syndrome regression was noted postoperatively. Differentiated application of various methods of treatment in the patients, suffering nonstable compressional fracture of the lower-thoracic and lumbar portions of vertebral column, permits to reduce anesthesiological risk significantly, to improve the results of treatment, to reduce the patients rehabilitation duration.

Percutaneous laser discectomy (PLD) was performed in 273 patients with herniated disc-induced lumbosacral radiculitis. Indications for PLD were based on clinical and neurological findings and results of MR tomography: no benefit from conservative treatment, pain syndrome in the lumbago stage and sciatica not presenting with severe paresis and with herniated intervertebral discs down to 6 mm in size across.

The puncture laser discectomy was conducted in 273 patients with discogenic lumbosacral radiculitis while the conservative therapy inefficacy, pain syndrome in a lumbago stage present and lumboischialgia with absent prominent locomotive disorders and if the intervertebral disc hernia has the size up to 0.6 cm.
