Sequestered disc herniation mimicking psoas abscess: A rare case report

Intervertebral disc herniation is common condition, with majority occurring in lumbar and cervical spine. Most lumbar disk herniations occur within the spinal canal, with approximately 7%-10% identified within the foramen or extraforaminal location. Extraforaminal disc herniation in extreme lateral,...
