The correlation between clinical symptom and morphological parameters on magnetic resonance imaging in patients with spondylolisthesis levels L4/L5 and L5/S1
CONCLUSIONS: A higher DSA and SCA, APD are associated with lower ODI. Decreased APD, SCA, and DSA are all suggestive of decreased spinal function. However, the MRI findings did not correlate with the patient's clinical pain level.PMID:37843323 | DOI:10.26355/eurrev_202310_33935 (Source: European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences)

Surgical treatment of high-grade spondylolisthesis
Oper Orthop Traumatol. 2023 Oct 10. doi: 10.1007/s00064-023-00830-w. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOBJECTIVE: Establishment of a physiological profile of the spine via reduction of the kyphotic slipped vertebra in the transverse and sagittal planes. Achieving solid fusion. Improvement of preoperative pain symptoms and prevention or elimination of neurological deficits.INDICATIONS: High-grade spondylolisthesis (Meyerding grade 3 and 4) as well as spondyloptosis after conservative treatment and corresponding symptoms. Serious neurological deficits, hip-lumbar extensor stiffness, are emergency indications.CONTRAINDICATIONS (C...

Facet joint thickness and lumbar instability documented on myelo-computed tomography studies in patients with lumbar degenerative disease
CONCLUSION: FJT on myelo-CT is more specific for lumbar instability than other imaging parameters when evaluating LDS. An increase in FJT suggests vertebral instability likely warranting fusion.PMID:37810286 | PMC:PMC10559377 | DOI:10.25259/SNI_652_2023 (Source: Surgical Neurology International)
