Spondylolisthesis (not to be confused with spondylosis or spondylolysis) is an anteroposterior translatory movement of two spinal vertebrae in relationship to each other caused by instability between the two involved vertebrae.
more
Spondylolisthesis (not to be confused with spondylosis or spondylolysis) is an anteroposterior translatory movement of two spinal vertebrae in relationship to each other caused by instability between the two involved vertebrae. The instability can be caused by degenerative changes of the facet joints, or by congenital or traumatic disruption of the pars interarticularis of the upper of the two vertebrae. It occurs most commonly in the lumbar spine.
