Abstract

The authors report the case of a 48-year-old woman who experienced spontaneous resolution of a large herniated disc at C6-7. Spontaneous resolution of a herniated lumbar disc was first documented by computerized tomography. This case is another example of a rare spontaneous resolution of a cervical disc herniation documented by magnetic resonance imaging.
