Twenty-two patients underwent a single-level L5-S1 fusion. Three patients had extension of the L5-S1 fusion to include L4 because it fell into the ... JM Zavatsky,C Lamartina,M Petruzzi 被引量: 0发表: 2013年 Clinical application of anterior lumbar interbody fusion assisted with laparoscopic...
Background/aims: To assess the revision rate at L5-S1 when only posterior fixation with pedicle screws is done with multi-level spinal fixation.Patients and Methods: The Retrospective quasi experimental study was conducted at the Combined Military Hospital, Rawalpinidi and comprised data from 2009 ...
Schedule a follow-up appointment with your surgeon for 2 weeks after surgery. Recovery time to daily activities is usually 6 to 12 weeks. X-rays may be taken after several weeks to verify that fusion is occurring. The surgeon will decide when to release you back to work at your follow-up...
Thus the present invention provides for the unmet need for an improved implant for performing spinal surgical procedures (e.g., spinal fusion and/or fixations) that can securely fix the L5 vertebrae to the S1 sacrum within the disc space for patients exhibiting a wide range of anatomies....
Minimum 5-year analysis of L5-S1 fusion using sacropelvic fixation (bilateral S1 and iliac screws) for spinal deformity. STUDY DESIGN: Clinical radiographic and outcomes investigation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate clinical and radiographic outcomes for lumbosacral fusion (in pat... K Tsuchiya,KH ...
Amultilevel spinal fusioninvolves fusing two or more levels of the spine, such as theL4-L5andL5-S1 spinal segments. Multilevel fusions considerably limit the normal motion in the lower back and place more stress across the remaining mobile joints. ...

This most commonly occurs at the lumbosacral junction with L5 slipping over S1, but it can occur at higher levels as well. It is classified based on etiology into 5 types: dysplastic, defect in pars inter-articularis, degenerative, traumatic, and pathologic. The most common grading system for...
a, b Radiograph showing L5–S1 involvement. c–d Computed tomography (CT) and e magnetic resonance imagery (MRI). f–j Postoperative radiography and h–i CT. j, k At final follow-up, the internal fixation was in good shape and interbody fusion had been obtained, without signs of ...
Patients with chronic low back pain undergoing lumbar spinal fusion (LSF) are physically inactive and thereby at risk of poor health. Barriers to being physically active need to be acknowledged in post-surgical rehabilitation. The primary objective of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to ex...
