The positive result was a complete regression of motor deficiency, restoration of sensory function and a decrease in the size of a hernia of the intervertebral disc at the level of C5C6 by 40%.</p>Karipaintranscutaneous electroneurostimulationelectrophoresiscervical radiculopathyКарипаинтранскожная электронейростимуляцияэлектрофорезшейная радикулопатия[Yepifanov VA, Yepifanov AV, Kotenko KV, Korchazhkina NB.
