"Chronische lumbago met foramentaillering L5-S1 rechts op basis van een hernia."

foraminal narrowing
Explanation:
Neural foraminal narrowing is a common result of disc degeneration. Spinal nerves pass through an opening in the spinal column known as the foramen. The process of disc degeneration or bulging causes the foramen to become narrower.
