Abstract
We present the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) appearance of a patient with an intradural
lumbar disc herniation and discuss this entity. This case demonstrates the role of
MRI in comparison to myelography/postmyelogram computed tomography with respect to
the diagnosis of intradural disc herniation.
