A member asked:
What is a lumbar rootlet lesion and would it cause back , hip and leg pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes and no: A true rootlet lesion would involve only apportion of the beginning of the root some tumors are small enough to do this but to give the picture you present would require a significant number of rootlets or the entire root.
