Are Spinal or Paraspinal Anatomic Markers Helpful for Vertebral Numbering and Diagnosing Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae?
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the value of spinal and paraspinal anatomic markers in both the diagnosis of lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTVs) and identification of vertebral levels on lumbar MRI. MATERIALS AND METHODS Lumbar MRI from 1049 adult patients were studied. By comparing with the whole-spine localizer, the diagnostic errors in numbering vertebral segments on lumbar MRI were evaluated...
متن کاملLumbosacral transitional vertebrae and nerve-root symptoms.
Transitional vertebrae (TV) may be one of the risk factors for lumbar disc herniation. It is not clear, however, whether the presence of TV can affect the development of nerve-root symptoms. Our aim was to clarify this relationship. A total of 501 patients with lumbar degenerative disease and nerve-root symptoms was studied in respect of their level and the presence of TV. As a control group, 5...
متن کاملIncidence of Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae in Low Back Pain
The aim of this study is to determine by plain radiography if there is a relationship between lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV) and low back pain (LBP) The correlation or relationship between LSTV and LBP has been highly controversial. Widely varying and contrasting findings have been reported by various investigators. While some studies have indicated the etiological significance of LS...
متن کاملA Review of Symptomatic Lumbosacral Transitional Vertebrae: Bertolotti's Syndrome.
BACKGROUND Lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV) are increasingly recognized as a common anatomical variant associated with altered patterns of degenerative spine changes. This review will focus on the clinical significance of LSTV, disruptions in normal spine biomechanics, imaging techniques, diagnosis, and treatment. METHODS A Pubmed search using the specific key words "LSTV," "lumbosac...
متن کاملLumbosacral transitional vertebrae: incidence in a consecutive patient series.
BACKGROUND Great variability exists in the reported frequency of transitional vertebra in the general population as well as in symptomatic lumbar spine patients. OBJECTIVE To determine the occurrence rate of transitional vertebra in consecutive lumbar spine patients in our practice. DESIGN A prospective, observational study METHODS Plain films were viewed and the presence or absence of a ...
