Author Response: Teaching NeuroImages: A Ruptured Lumbar Disc Mimicking Spinal Tumor

We appreciate the interest in our research1 and could not agree more with the authors of this comment. The purpose of our teaching neuroimage was to point out that not only radiographic appearances of a herniated lumbar disc (HLD) could potentially mimic a spinal tumor but that the clinical presentation of a HLD could mimic a spinal tumor as well.1
