Spondylolisthesis – Overview

Spondylolisthesis is a soie condition in which the vertebra slips down into the vertebra lower to it. Vertebrae are the bones that join together to form the spine. So, if one vertebra slips over the other it can cause a lot of spine problems. You will experience lower back pain and in extreme cases; spine deformities.

Spondylolisthesis is not very common. 4% to 6% of adults suffer from this condition. If it doesn’t show the symptoms, it remains unnoticed. Spondylolisthesis has many types and stages. The initial stages can be resolved with medicines and therapies. Whereas during extreme stages, when spondylolisthesis pain is unbearable, it needs to be fixed through surgical procedure. Note that surgery is very rare in case of spondylolisthesis.

Types of Spondylolisthesis

The types depend upon which area of the spine is affected and in which stage of one’s life.

Congenital Spondylolisthesis

It is caused when the foetus spine doesn’t form in a normal way. This spine is prone to spondylolisthesis in later stages of life.

Isthmic Spondylolisthesis

It occurs due to spondylosis. The vertebra can slip due to a crack or fracture.

Degenerative Spondylolisthesis

It’s the most common type that occurs due to aging. The discs that surround the vertebrae lose water cushion with aging and this makes vertebrae weak and prone to slipping.

    What causes Spondylolisthesis?

    There are many causes of spondylolisthesis such as:

    • Over stretching of spine
    • Aging
    • Weak bones
    • Females are more suspected to get spondylolisthesis then men
    • Spine deformities
    • Cracks in vertebrae
    • Less water cushion that protects the vertebrae
    • Genetics
    • Thin vertebral bones

    Symptoms of Spondylolisthesis

    The symptoms of spondylolisthesis are:

    • Lower back pain
    • Back stiffness
    • Pain while bending
    • Muscle spasm
    • Difficulty in walking
    • Difficulty in standing for a long time
    • Numbness
    • Tingling sensation

    Spondylolisthesis Treatment Options

    Once spondylolisthesis diagnosis is done by doctors at your general hospital, you will be prescribed muscle relaxants and NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs) along with corticosteroids.

    Other than medicines, physical therapy is advised which helps in improving the acute pain. It includes exercises that help in posture correction, strengthens the back muscles and aids in improving flexibility. In certain cases, doctors at your general hospital might recommend steroid injections that are applied around the nerve root. The steroid injections help in relieving pain and inflammation surrounding the irritated nerves.

    Surgical options are also available for spondylolisthesis which are reserved for the condition when the compressed nerve due to pressure exerted by the skipped vertebrae, results in significant weakness, pain on physical activities, loss of bladder and bowel control, pain that doesn’t relieve with therapies and removal of bone spurs that might be pressing the impinged nerves.
