L5-S1 Laparoscopic Anterior Interbody Fusion
OBJECTIVE We evaluated our experience with laparoscopic L5-S1 anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF). METHODS This represents a retrospective analysis of consecutive patients who underwent L5-S1 laparoscopic ALIF between February 1998 and August 2003. RESULTS Twenty-eight patients underwent L5-S1 LAIF (15 males and 13 females). The mean age was 43 years (range, 26 to 67). Mean operative ti...
متن کاملDoes pre-existing L5-S1 degeneration affect outcomes after isolated L4-5 fusion for spondylolisthesis?
BACKGROUND Concerns have been raised regarding residual symptoms of caudal segment (L5-S1) degeneration that may affect clinical outcomes or require additional surgery after isolated L4-5 fusion, especially if there is pre-existing L5-S1 degeneration. This study aimed to evaluate the L5-S1 segment after minimally invasive lumbar interbody fusion at the L4-5 segment, as well as the influence of ...
متن کاملL5 – 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...
متن کاملTransvertebral Transsacral strut grafting for high-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis L5-S1 with fibular allograft.
STUDY DESIGN A clinical retrospective study was conducted. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of 25 consecutive patients with symptomatic high-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis at L5-S1 treated by decompression and transvertebral, transsacral strut grafting with fibular allograft. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA Symptomatic high-grade isthmic spondylolisthesis serves as a...
متن کاملL5 radiculopathy caused by L5 nerve root entrapment by an L5-S1 anterior osteophyte
BACKGROUND L5 radiculopathy is a common problem that has several causes. Entrapment of the L5 nerve root by anterior osteophytes at the L5-S1 junction is rarely reported. Posterior decompression of the L5 nerve root is commonly performed, but anterior decompression of the L5 nerve root is not a frequently performed procedure. The purpose of this case report is to describe an uncommon case of L5...
