| Abstract: | Detailed surgical management, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and computer tomography (CT) images of a broken annular closure device (ACD) have not been reported yet. In this case, a 28-year-old male presented with a new onset of radiculopathy three years after lumbar discectomy and placement of an ACD. The CT-myelography and MRI revealed a recurrent disc herniation (RDH) and dislocation of a broken ACD. ACD removal was performed and confirmed breakage due to RDH with scarring around the RDH and displaced ACD. Implant-associated complications and management should be reported in detail in order to enhance knowledge on device-related complications. |
