Popis: Conservative treatment is the “gold standard” treatment for low back pain, in spine degenerative conditions. However, in cases where there is a failure in conservative measures, surgical treatment becomes an option (Roh et al, 2005). These procedures traditionally included decompression of spinal elements, correction of deformity and arthrodesis of the diseased spinal segment but, in some conditions, they both may be used in a combined manner (Schwarzenbach et al, 2005).
