Surgical treatment of military with multilevel lumbar vertebral spondylolysis

Abstract

Purpose. To demonstrate the effectiveness of an isolated fixation technique of multilevel spondylosis disorders in young patients.Materials and methods. Two military men were operated for multilevel spondylosis of lumbar vertebra (LII, LIV and LIV, LV).Results and discussion. Patients underwent bone autoplasty and osteosynthesis of vertebral arches using hybrid lamina transpedicular system in a screw-rod-hook form. Good anatomic and functional results were got.Conclusion. Avoidance of fixation of intact functional spinal units allows to achieve good treatment results and classify this operation as organ sparing surgery.
