Popis: The incidence of nerve root sedimentation sign (SedSign) was evaluated to explore potential pathogenesis in patients with severe lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). In a total of 209 patients with severe LSS, 290 intervertebral levels were narrow, among which 248 showed a positive SedSign, giving a prevalence of 85.52%. Those levels with a positive SedSign were further analyzed relative to those with a negative SedSign. There was no significant difference between the two groups for the cross-sectional area (CSA) or the posteroanterior diameter (PAD). In contrast, there was a significant difference between the groups for the grade of degenerative facet joint (DFJ) (p
