During the period from 1999 to 2009 at 16 patients, have been operated because of thoracic spine hernia, the interbody fusion was used. For patient’s functional status estimation a scale for patient with thoracic spine hernia status estimation (QTMR) was used. In the early postoperative period pain intensity decreased or pain has disappeared at 12 patients, motor disorders — at 15, conducting sensitiveness was improved — at 16, improvement of pelvic organs function was observed at 4 patients, reduction of segmental and radicular disorders — at 10, 8 patients could walk without assistance in the early postoperative period.
