    AbstractThe long history of sciatica is recalled from the 18th century observations through the contributions of Lasègue (a philosopher who worked with Claude Bernard), Valleix, Brissaud, Dejerine, Sicard, Forestier, Alajouanine and Petit-Dutaillis. Two papers by professor de Sèze on the significance of herniations of lumbar disks were published in December 1939 and June 1940, a most unfavourable period in France. Since then many advances are to be recorded among which the use of metrizamide instead of the old lipiodol and, most of all, the advent of CT Scan.
