Diagnosis and Management of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Review.

Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2022
Importance Lumbar spinal stenosis is a prevalent and disabling cause of low back and leg pain in older persons, affecting an estimated 103 million persons worldwide. Most are treated nonoperatively. Approximately 600 000 surgical procedures are performed

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2008
Spinal stenosis is a manifestation of several distinct etiologies that result in narrowing of the spinal canal. Degenerative changes involving the facet joints, intervertebral disks, and ligaments all may contribute to stenosis or exacerbate symptoms in the patient with congenitally narrowed canals.

Spinal stenosis

2014
Narrowing of the spinal canal or foramina is a common finding in spine imaging of the elderly. Only when symptoms of neurogenic claudication and/or cervical myelopathy are present is a spinal stenosis diagnosis made, either of the lumbar spine, cervical spine or both (only very rarely is the thoracic spine involved).

The Treatment of Spinal Stenosis

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1976
Decompression usually relieves leg pain and enables the patient to walk normal distances. Some back pain may remain. This is often helped by a light elastic support. If there was loss of sensation and motor power before operation, return may be considerable. The operation is only a small part of the total treatment of spinal stenosis.

LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 1977
Recognition and management of problems inherent in spinal stenosis require a clear understanding of the diverse anatomic changes, their radiologic representations, and careful correlation with a wide spectrum of fluctuating clinical manifestations. Although a common basis might be postulated for narrowing of the spinal canal, emphasis should be placed ...

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Seminars in Neurology, 2002
Lumbar spinal stenosis refers to a diversity of conditions that decrease the total area of the spinal canal, lateral recesses, or neural foramina. Lumbar stenosis is a common disorder that may be present in isolation, with or without associated disk bulge or herniation, or can be associated with degenerative spondylolisthesis or scoliosis.

Spinal Stenosis with Scoliosis

Spine, 1992
A retrospective review was carried out on 40 patients who met the criteria of 1) having a significant lumbar scoliosis associated with spinal stenosis, with symptoms of neurogenic claudication; and 2) having been treated with posterior decompression and pedicular screw fixation techniques.

Imaging of spinal stenosis

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2003
Imaging has an important role in the diagnosis of canal and neuroforaminal stenosis when correlated with clinical symptoms. MR and CT myelography have the best correlation because of multiplanar reformatting. Special techniques to load the spine such as an upright MR increase sensitivity in detecting canal stenosis.

Spinal Stenosis

Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, 1988
Degenerative spinal stenosis is the most common type of stenosis encountered, often presenting with neurogenic claudication. History and physical examination indicate its presence and radiologic imaging is used to demonstrate the spatial reduction in the lumbar canals.
