Abstract:
Pain syndrome and a variety of neurological syndromes resulting from degenerative-dystrophic changes of the lumbar spine lead to significant violations of labor and social adaptation. According to many researchers, pain in the lumbar spine radiating to the leg observed in 1/3 of patients with degenerative-dystrophic lesions of the lumbar spine, which in 40% of cases is due to the presence of herniated protrusions of the intervertebral discs and spondylolisthesis. The frequency of spondylolisthesis in the lumbar spine occurs to 50 out of 100,000 population. Spondylolisthesis is more common among middle-aged men.
