Robot-Assisted Screw Fixation Combined With Endoscopic Bone Graft in the Minimally Invasive Treatment of Lumbar Spondylolysis: A Single-Center Retrospective Study. [PDF]
This study introduces a minimally invasive technique for lumbar spondylolysis, combining robotāassisted percutaneous screw fixation with endoscopic bone graft. The approach aims to enhance postoperative recovery and patient compliance, offering a valuable alternative to conventional open surgery with potential benefits in terms of precision and reduced

L5 spondylolysis: Anatomical study comparing healed and unhealed lesions
The anatomy and pathogenesis of spondylolysis has been widely studied; however, the microanatomy of spondylolysis of the lumbar vertebra has not been well described. Therefore, we aim to better elucidate this anatomy.
