Abstract
Many hypotheses, based on theoretical and experimental studies, have been made about the effect of ozone on the nucleous pulposus. We describe one case of surgery on a disc previously submitted to ozone therapy. The surgeon found that the herniated disc removed was macroscopically different from usual and referred it to the pathologist for the histopathologic evaluation, whose results are reported.
