Stenosis of the Lumbar Vertebral Canal
The midsagittal and interpedicular diameters and the trefoil shape of lumbar vertebrae of known age at death were measured in skeletons from a population aged between 1 and 70 years. All the trefoil configurations were at L5 with the exception of one at L4. The overall prevalence was 25%, but this shape was not generally apparent until adulthood. The midsagittal diameter in the trefoil canals w...

Literature on the anatomy of the human vertebral column characterizes the shape of the lumbar vertebral canal as triangular. The purpose of the present study was to determine the precise shape of the lumbar vertebral canal. Ten lumbar vertebral columns of adult male cadavers were dissected. Two transverse sections were performed in the third lumbar vertebra. One section was performed at the lev...
متن کاملFactors Affecting the Outcome of Lumbar Canal Stenosis Surgery: A Two-year Follow-up Study
Background: Lumbar Canal Stenosis (LCS) is the most common reason for spinal surgery in older patients. Identifying factors influencing the outcome of surgical management is important in clinical research. Objectives: This study aims to identify the factors affecting the outcome of surgical management for LCS. Materials & Methods: This prospective non-randomized cohort study was conducted at ...
متن کاملThe trefoil configuration of the lumbar vertebral canal. A study of South African skeletal material.
The shallow lateral recesses of the trefoil shape of the lumbar spinal canal have been implicated in the production of the spinal stenosis syndrome. In the present study, 485 skeletons of South African Blacks and Whites were examined in order to establish the incidence and possible genesis of the trefoil configuration. The overall incidence was 14 per cent, with little variation between the sex...
متن کاملFoot dystonia and lumbar canal stenosis.
We describe a patient who developed involuntary, painless, dystonic contraction of the toes of the right foot on standing or walking. The development of this abnormal movement had been preceded by sensory disturbance on the soles of both feet, triggered by dorsiflexion of the feet. Examination showed that weight bearing on the right foot and walking brought on clawing of the toes of the right f...
