Scoliosis in dysplastic spondylolisthesis: a clinical survey of 50 young patients
Background Dysplastic spondylolisthesis is a rare spinal deformity that occurs mainly in young patients. Although its sagittal parameters had been well stated, coronal abnormalities in these patients were poorly studied. The purposes of this study were: (

Degenerative Spondylolisthesis [PDF]
Degenerative spondylolisthesis is one important type of spinal stenosis. The spinal canal stenosis varies in degree. This is the result of anterior slipping of the whole vertebra, usually L4 on L5. The clinical picture is not greatly different from that observed in the other types of lumbar canal stenosis. The surgical management involves decompression
