THE TREATMENT OF SPONDYLOLISTHESIS WITH POSTEROLATERAL AND LATERAL MASS FUSIONS
Journal Title: Journal of Turkish Spinal Surgery - Year 1990, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Eleven patients with spondylolisthesis were operated between the years 1978-1989. Lateral fusion was applied to five of the patients and posterolateral fusion to six of them. No neurological complication was diagnosed. In four of them lateral mass fusion was carried out through the bilateral paravertebral incisions and symptoms relieved earlier than other methods. In the patients where two incisions were used, full plaster or iron jacket were applied for there months after surgery.
