Filter by:Currently there is no consensus on the best surgical treatment of patients with symptomatic isthmic spondylolisthesis (IS). Clinical equipoise exists amongst experienced clinicians on the various surgical techniques available. This study will involve multiple phases to answer specific research questions comparing anterior and posterior interbody fusion in patients with lumbar isthmic spondylolisthesis. The primary end point will be 1-year proportions of patients reaching minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in terms of leg pain measured by NRS leg. The secondary endpoints will be predetermined moderate to severe AEs, reoperations for nonunion, symptomatic adjacent segment disease, radiological alignment correction and correlation with HRQOL as well as economic analysis at 1, 2, 5 and 10 years.
This was a retrospective study.PI and LL greatly influence IS and its progression. However, relationships between the spinopelvic parameters and clinical symptoms of patients with IS were not fully investigated in previous studies. Investigators hypothesized that spinopelvic parameters might be related to the clinical symptoms of IS patients. Therefore, the purpose of the present study was to investigate whether differences in spinopelvic parameters, especially spinopelvic alignment, may be associated with the clinical symptoms of low-grade IS patients.
Aim of research is to investigates clinical, surgical and radiological outcome of vertebral pars intetarticularis repair by used smile face shape rod technique and bone grafting and comparing that with posteriolateral fusion with used traditional transpedical screw and rod fixation in management of isthmic spondylistheisis
Patient outcomes and satisfaction are an ever-increasing priority in surgical specialties. Cryotherapy has been utilized following spine surgery as an adjunct therapy to reduce postoperative inflammation and improve patient outcomes. However, limited studies have investigated the effect of cryotherapy on postoperative pain and narcotics use. Fountas et al. performed a randomized controlled trial to assess the impact of postoperative cryotherapy following single-level lumbar microdiscectomy. The authors reported patients receiving cryotherapy required significantly less pain medication (0.058 mg/kg/hr versus 0.067 mg/kg/hr, p<0.001) and had shorter hospital stays (1.71 days versus 2.65 days, p<0.001) as compared to the control group. In another randomized trial of single-level lumbar discectomy patients, Murata et al. demonstrated cryotherapy to have no significant effect on VAS inpatient pain scores or postoperative blood loss.
This study aims to evaluate clinical and radiological outcomes of isthmic spondylolisthesis surgically treated with combined approach. The goal is to demonstrate that it is a safe and efficient technique to treat isthmic spondylolisthesis. There is very little literature concerning this procedure.
The present study is planned to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of a new pedicle screw system for the specific indication of isthmic spondylolisthesis, as this condition concerns relatively young patients requiring good fixation of the performed reposition to come to satisfactory clinical results.
The aim of this study is to compare outcomes and cost-effectiveness of anterior versus posterior surgical treatment for lumbar Isthmic Spondylolisthesis. The primary objective is to compare treatment effectiveness in terms of functional outcomes as measured by Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) v2.1a and to compare safety outcomes measured by treatment-related adverse events. Secondary objectives are to compare treatments in terms of differences in pain, quality of life, health utilities, and need for re-operation. Finally, a cost-effectiveness analysis will be performed. This analysis will take the form of cost-effectiveness if there is a difference in treatment effects or cost-minimization if there is no difference in treatment efficacy.
