Concomitant spine and hip disease in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA) presents a management challenge. Degenerative lumbar spine conditions are known to decrease lumbar lordosis and limit lumbar flexion and extension, leading to altered pelvic mechanics and increased demand for hip motion. In this study, the effect of lumbar spine disease on complications after primary THA was a...

A one stage operation by the posterior route has been carried out in a series of nine patients for the reduction and fusion of severe spondylolisthesis and spondyloptosis. For this purpose special instruments have been designed to exert a controlled force on the displaced vertebra in two perpendicular directions. Technical details of the procedure are reported. Bone is resected from the sacrum ...

The vast majority of pediatric lumbosacral spondylolisthesis have developmental etiology. Of the very rare type of pediatric lumbosacral facet dislocations, there are only three reported cases of a pediatric unilateral jumped facet injury. All of these cases are associated with fracture dislocation of L5-S1. Hyperflexion with rotation is thought to provoke this uncommon type of spine injury.The...

Case summary A 12-year-old neutered male domestic shorthair cat was presented to our referral hospital with a chronic history of tenesmus and lumbosacral pain. A diagnosis of degenerative lumbosacral stenosis (DLSS) was made and a standard dorsal L7-S1 laminectomy was performed uneventfully, with complete recovery within 1 month. The cat was brought back 4 months later for investigation of lumb...

background & aim: spondylolisthesis is a visible deformity in lumbosacral region with vertebral slip and fracture or other deformities of pars interarticularis. this study aims at investigating the characteristics of spondylolisthesis surgery in operated patients. methods & materials/patients: this is a retrospective study which included all the patients who had undergone spondylolisthesis surg...

conclusions although spinopelvic fracture dislocation injuries are severe high-energy entities, in cases with traumatic spondylolytic spondylolisthesis due to widening of the vertebral canal, neurologic deficit may not be seen at all. case presentation we described a 16-year-old girl with extremely severe axial trauma to the lumbosacral spine who presented with fracture dislocation of the lumbo...

Recent literature supports the surgical reduction of high-grade spondylolisthesis, particularly with an unbalanced pelvis and spine. Drop foot is most common neurological complication reported in literature. Scoliosis Research Society database only one patient (child) cauda equina syndrome after surgery for dysplastic lumbosacral spondylolisthesis. The lack longitudinal clinical follow-up that ...
