Introduction: Spondylolisthesis is defined as the forward displacement of a vertebra in relation to below it. It most common lower back.Aim: The aim this study analyze Functional outcome following Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion Spondylolisthesis. Methods: A total 20 patients with spondylolistheis was treated from November 2021 October 2022.Results: In Our 11 had lesion at L4-L5 and 9 L5...

STUDY DESIGN Cross-sectional study. OBJECTIVE To determine the association between lumbar spondylolisthesis and low back pain and symptomatic lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) in a population-based cohort. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA The basic epidemiology of lumbar spondylolisthesis is not well known. There is little information regarding the association between lumbar spondylolisthesis and clin...

STUDY DESIGN Descriptive cross-sectional study. PURPOSE To determine the prevalence of lumbar spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis in a general adult population unrelated to lower back pain as evaluated by multidetector computed tomography. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE There is a significant paucity of information related to the prevalence of spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis and its degenerativ...

Background: Spinal instability, including lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS), mainly results from degeneration of intervertebral discs (IVD) and the facet joints (FJ). Characterization of the relationship between IVD degeneration in cases of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS), and T2 values may be useful for accurate noninvasive evaluation and subsequent treatment. Thus, the goa...

The association between spondylolisthesis and scoliosis was studied in 84 patients who presented during a 30-year period with symptomatic spondylolisthesis. The incidence of scoliosis was 42 per cent, the majority of cases being lumbar or thoracolumbar curves of less than 15 degrees. The incidence was highest in the group of patients with spondylolisthesis at L4--5 where all except one had scol...

Spondylolysis is the term used for a defect in the pars interarticularis of the vertebra. The term is from the Greek roots spondylos, meaning vertebra, and lysis, meaning break or defect. Spondylolisthesis is from spondylos and listhesis, meaning movement or slipping, and refers to the slipping forward of one vertebra on the next caudal vertebra. Spondylolisthesis was first described in 1782 by...

PURPOSE To compare 2 methods of fusion in the treatment of lumbar spondylolisthesis: posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and intertransverse fusion (ITF). METHODS 20 patients with lumbar spondylolisthesis were randomly allocated to one of 2 groups: decompression, posterior instrumentation, and PLIF (n=10) or decompression, posterior instrumentation, and ITF (n=10). The Oswestry low back ...

Spondylolisthesis (Spondylos=vertebrae; Listhesis= slippage) is forward slippage of one vertebra on another and may be the result of a spondylolysis. The classification by Marchetti and Bartolozzi examines the two broad aetiological groups, namely developmental and acquired (Table 1). This classification has relevance to the natural history, risk of progression and implications of treatment of ...

A critical review was made of the CT findings in 300 patients who underwent axial CT of the lumbar spine in which spondylolysis and/or spondylolisthesis had been diagnosed. Findings indicate that axial CT is superior to conventional radiographs in several areas: (1) for consistent and accurate demonstration of spondylolysis, (2) for disclosing the various changes in the apophyseal joints associ...
