Unilateral spondylolysis

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1982
Five vertebrae with unilateral spondylolysis are presented. The associated asymmetry of the posterior elements supports the concept of a localised form of growth deficiency. The defect is difficult to demonstrate radiologically, and is perhaps present more frequently than is recognised.

Spondylolysis in osteopetrosis

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1988
We report the occurrence of spondylolysis and/or spondylolisthesis of the lumbar vertebrae in five patients with osteopetrosis, four of them having multiple lesions. The case histories indicate that spondylolysis had developed in the pathological bone as a result of increased stress and that it is an acquired lesion.

Cervical Spondylolysis

Journal of Spinal Disorders, 1992
The term cervical spondylolysis describes a long-standing, perhaps congenital defect of the pars interarticularis of a cervical vertebra. We report 10 new cases of cervical spondylolysis and review the literature. All patients in this report were treated nonoperatively with subsequent symptomatic improvement.

Lumbar spondylolysis: a review

Skeletal Radiology, 2010
Spondylolysis is an osseous defect of the pars interarticularis, thought to be a developmental or acquired stress fracture secondary to chronic low-grade trauma. It is encountered most frequently in adolescents, most commonly involving the lower lumbar spine, with particularly high prevalence among athletes involved in certain sports or activities ...

Spondylolysis in Athletes

The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1980
The high occurrence of spondylolysis in these athletes suggests that certain sports actions predispose athletes to fractures in the neural arches of the lumbar vertebrae.

Asymmetrical spondylolysis

American Journal of Physical Anthropology, 2002
AbstractThe objective of this study was to examine examples of spondylolysis in which the pattern of separation was clearly asymmetrical, in order to learn more about the process of bone separation that produces this condition. Although the primary focus was on unilateral complete separation, examples of asymmetry represented by incomplete separation ...

Spondylolysis in the adolescent athlete

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 2011
Spondylolysis is a common cause for back pain in the adolescent athlete. Increased awareness of the presentation of this subset of patients can aid in optimal outcomes. This paper aims to review the typical presentation of spondylolysis in the adolescent with specific focus on the adolescent athlete.

Spondylolysis and Spondylolisthesis

2018
1. Spondylolysis is a defect in the pars interarticularis of the vertebra. This defect usually involves the L5 vertebra (95%) [1]. “Spondylo” derives from the Greek word for vertebra, and “lysis” refers to a defect [2] (see Fig. 148.1). 2. Spondylolisthesis is defined as a forward slip of the vertebrae relative to the one below with or ...

Innervation of the Spondylolysis “Ligament”

Spine, 1994
Spondylolysis of the lower lumbar vertebrae is a non-united childhood fracture of the arch of the vertebra, persisting into adult life. Symptoms of disabling low back pain appear in a minority of patients, usually for the first time in adulthood. This pain is considered to arise from several separate sources, one of which may be the spondylolysis ...
