Abstract Background: An increase in the number of hernias of intervertebral discs in children and adults in recent years has attracted the attention of specialists. Assessing the prevalence of hernias in different age groups and studying the causes of this pathology is an urgent problem of the present time. Material and methods: It was examined 100 scans of the vertebral column with hernias of intervertebral discs obtained during 2017 from patients 10 to 67 years old (29 patients – children under 18 years old (29%), 71 patients – adults from 18 to 67 years old (71%), examined using 32-slice spiral computed and magnetic resonance imaging on Light Speed TM VCT and Signa Profile devices based on the State Research and Production Center “Mother and Child”. Results: Hernias of the intervertebral discs in the lumbar spine are the most common in both adults and children. Paramedian hernias are the most common in age groups. Intervertebral hernias most often occur between the ages of 17 and 25 with the same frequency in men and women. Conclusions: Hernias of the intervertebral discs occur in all parts of the spine. However, paramedian hernias in the lumbar spine are the most common in adults and dorsal hernias in the lumbar spine are the most common in children.
