Article Synopsis
- The meta-analysis focused on the morphometric properties of the lumbar vertebrae to provide current and evidence-based data.
- A total of 1481 patients were analyzed, revealing that the spinal canal width and transverse processes increase towards the lower lumbar vertebrae, while the height of pedicles decreases from L1 to L4 and then increases at L5.
- The findings aim to aid physicians and surgeons by offering normative anatomical data that can improve surgical outcomes in procedures involving the lumbar spine.
Authors, mostly specialists on rehabilitation and orthopedic surgery prove that arthrofibrosis is a commonly overlooked phenomenon, which may lead to serious limitation in the range of movement, leading to limitation in patients quality of functioning. The main goal of this article is to emphasize the importance of understanding a such complex condition. Non typical patomechanism, lack of biomarkers dedicated to this dysfunction and general lack of understanding in this pathology causes that risk factors and the most effective strategies remain vastly unknown.
