Abstract:BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
Adults with achondroplasia are more vulnerable to suffer from neurogenic claudication because of a congenital narrow spinal canal, which makes them susceptible to lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). The study aims to investigate the correlations between sagittal alignment parameters and the degree of LSS in patients with achondroplasia with LSS.
METHODS:
The radiological data of adult achondroplasts presented to the neurosurgical cl… Show more
