Abnormal L5-S1 Facet Joint Orientation as a Harbinger of Degenerative Spondylolisthesis: A Case Report

نویسندگان

چکیده

Degenerative spondylolisthesis is a common cause of low back pain and resultant disability in the adult population. The causes degenerative are not entirely understood, though combination anatomic lifestyle factors likely contributes to development this pathology. Here, we report case 38-year-old female presenting with right lower extremity radiculopathy, found have L5-S1 spondylolisthesis, which postulate developed part due sagittal orientation her facet joints bilaterally.

L5 – S1 Segmental Kinematics After Facet Arthroplasty

BACKGROUND Facet arthroplasty is a motion restoring procedure. It is normally suggested as an alternative to rigid fixation after destabilizing decompression procedures in the posterior lumbar spine. While previous studies have reported successful results in reproducing normal spine kinematics after facet replacement at L4-5 and L3-4, there are no data on the viability of facet replacement at t...

Radiographic predisposing factors for degenerative spondylolisthesis.

This study was a retrospective radiographic study involving analysis of computed tomography scans obtained for patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis of the L4-L5 segment and a control group. The purpose of the study was to identify radiological predisposing factors for degenerative spondylolisthesis of the L4-L5 segment. The authors reviewed all computed tomography scans (N=3370) perform...

Degenerative Sacrolisthesis of S1-S2: A Case Report

INTRODUCTION Degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS) is usually seen at L4-L5 level and less frequently at L5-S1 level. This is a rare case report of spondylolisthesis of S1 over S2 with lumbarization of S1. Lumbarization of S1 is seen in just 1-2% of the population and to have spondylolisthesis in this segment is even rarer. The purpose is to report a rare case of DS at S1-S2 level. CASE REPORT ...

Sacralization of L5 in Radiological Studies of Degenerative Spondylolisthesis at L4-L5

STUDY DESIGN Radiological analysis. PURPOSE To investigate sacralization of L5 on radiological studies of degenerative spondylolisthesis at L4-L5. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE Degenerative spondylolisthesis commonly develops at L4-L5. Sacralization of L5 is thought to cause stress concentration at this level, which accentuates degenerative changes and promotes development of degenerative spondylo...
