The term lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) refers to the narrowing of the spinal canal due to anatomical reasons, and it is linked to a variety of clinical symptoms.The onset of stenosis LSS can be unilateral or bilateral, monosegmental or multisegmental. The stenosis can be characterized as central, lateral, or foraminal anatomically.Neurogenic claudication is the most prevalent symptom of LSS, which is defined as limping or cramping lumbar pain that spreads into the legs primarily during walking.Typical patient symptoms include unilateral or bilateral (exertional) back and leg discomfort that develops over months, if not years.As people live longer and seek a better quality of life, as well as increased knowledge of the condition and the availability of improved imaging techniques, the number of people diagnosed with degenerative LSS has increased. |
