- Spondylolisthesis is a condition where one vertebra slips forward over the one below it, causing back pain and nerve compression. In this video, we will review the terminology, classification, and radiographic features of spondylolisthesis in the lumbar spine. We will also show you some examples of spondylolisthesis on different imaging modalities, and test your knowledge with some multiple choice questions at the end.

The term spondylolisthesis comes from the Greek words spondylos, meaning spine, and listhesis, meaning slipping. Spondylolisthesis can be classified according to its etiology or its degree of slippage. The most common etiologies are:
Degenerative: due to aging and wear and tear of the intervertebral discs and facet joints.
Isthmic: due to a defect or fracture in the pars interarticularis, which is the part of the vertebra that connects the superior and inferior articular processes.
Dysplastic: due to a congenital malformation of the lumbosacral junction.
Traumatic: due to an acute injury or fracture of the vertebra.
Pathologic: due to a disease or tumor that weakens the bone.
Post-surgical: due to a complication or failure of a spinal surgery.
The degree of slippage can be measured by using lines of mensuration on radiographs. The most commonly used method is the Meyerding grading system, which divides the superior endplate of the sacrum into four equal parts and assigns a grade from I to IV based on how much of the slipped vertebra overlaps with each part. Grade I is less than 25% slippage, grade II is 25% to 50%, grade III is 50% to 75%, and grade IV is more than 75%. Grade V, also known as spondyloptosis, is when the entire vertebra slips off the sacrum.

說得非常好 圖片非常珍貴🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍🙇🙇🙇
Since May 2004 but a motorcycle accident in May 2015 finished the job. Here in Canada, the doctors are unable to correctly diagnose this so they prescribed opioids. Yes ! Opioids prescribed since May 2004. If you enjoy taking drugs, Canada is the place for you. Not only do Canadian doctors prescribe opioids but, the taxpayers pay for this.
I hate drugs. I wish I could get a fusion and disc replacement but I live in Canada. Our doctors not able to figure this out. I am almost finished. Death by doctors. Their weapon of choice is opioids. For 20 years.
You cannot make this up. I am speaking the truth. Tell our grandchildren the truth, please ?
I have Spondylolisthesis at one level in my Lumbar section. About 90 minutes work for any reasonable surgeon but, here in Canada, they are unable to figure this out. To be honest, death will be nice. No more pain and suffering and, no more of these awful drugs.
Canada does NOT have "universal healthcare". I am proof ! ! !
А ааааа, пошла плакать. Английского языка не понимаю.
