In the period 1985-1986 twenty-four patients with a recurrent lumbar disk herniation were subjected to surgery in the department of Neurosurgery in the Academic Medical Hospital of Utrecht. In 25% of these patients the second lumbar disk herniation was at the same level and side as the first one. Recurrence of the disk rupture at the same side and level as the first one occurred most often within two years after initial surgery. A recurrent slipped disk at different lumbar level occurred after a time interval of two years or more. Correct diagnosis depends on the results of imaging techniques. All reoperated patients did well after surgery and could return to their work or normal daily obligations.
