case_images: In the lateral view, the tip was confirmed to be anterior to the vertebral body (Figure 1).
case_images: - The lumbar MRI of the patient. The findings are moderate disc extrusion to the central zone, with inferior sequestration at L2/3 and moderate central canal stenosis at L2/3 on sagittal T2 and fat suppressed T1-weighted Image with transverse T1 and T2-weighted image.

case_images: Therefore, we performed lumbar spine magnetic resonance imaging and found moderate disc extrusion to the central zone, with inferior sequestration at L2/3 and moderate central canal stenosis at L2/3 (Figure 2).
case_images: - The postoperative radiography of lumbar spine. The postoperative state shows posterior lumbar interbody fusion at L2/3, with L2 partial laminectomy and discectomy.
