Is conservative therapy an effective option for treating PIDC?

The effectiveness of conservative therapy in the treatment of pediatric intervertebral disc calcification (PIDC) was examined in 149 cases. A total of 109 patients had just one PIDC, 29 had two, and 21 had several. All patients received non-surgical, conservative care. After neck traction or collar fixation, all patients' symptoms disappeared. These findings indicated that PIDC can be treated conservatively.
