Popis: | Spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis are common pathological conditions affecting the lumbosacral junction and resulting in a forward displacement of lumbar vertebra number 5 (L5) in relation to the sacrum. It is a frequent cause of back pain in children and adolescents and may also produce neurological deficits or physical disability in severe forms. |
