Unstable degenerative spondylolisthesis of the cervical spine.
Unstable degenerative spondylolisthesis of the cervical spine is very rare. Slip usually occurs at the C3 on C4 or C4 on C5 levels, immediately above a stiff lower cervical spine. There are two clinical patterns: that with neurological involvement causing cervicobrachial pain or myelopathy and that with neck pain alone. The diagnosis can be made by flexion/extension radiography. All of our eigh...
متن کاملDynamic Stabilization for Degenerative Spondylolisthesis and Lumbar Spinal Instability
Lumbar interbody fusion is a widely accepted surgical procedure for patients with lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis and lumbar spinal instability in the active age group. However, in elderly patients, it is often questionable whether it is truly necessary to construct rigid fixation for a short period of time. In recent years, we have been occasionally performing posterior dynamic stabiliza...
متن کاملDecompression without Fusion for Low-Grade Degenerative Spondylolisthesis.
STUDY DESIGN Retrospective series. PURPOSE Assess results of decompression-only surgery for low-grade degenerative spondylolisthesis with consideration of instability. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE There is no consensus on whether fusion or decompression-only surgery leads to better outcomes for patients with low-grade degenerative spondylolisthesis. Current trends support fusion but many studies ...
متن کاملSurgical Outcome of Reduction and Instrumented Fusion in Lumbar Degenerative Spondylolisthesis
Background: Lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (LDS) is a degenerative slippage of the lumbar vertebrae. We aimed to evaluate the surgical outcome of degenerative spondylolisthesis with neural decompression, pedicular screw fixation, reduction, and posterolateral fusion.Methods: This before-after study was carried out on 45 patients (37 female and 8 male) with LDS operated from August 2008 t...
متن کاملRadiographic 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...
