Mean 5-Year Follow-Up Results of a Facet Replacement Device in the Treatment of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis and Degenerative Spondylolisthesis.

Objective: Flexible stabilization has been utilized to maintain spinal mobility in patients with early-stage lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). Previous literature has not yet established any nonfusion solution as a viable treatment option for patients with severe posterior degeneration of the lumbar spine. This feasibility study evaluates the mean 5-year outcomes of patients treated with the Total Posterior Spine System (TOPS) facet replacement system in the surgical management of lumbar spinal stenosis and degenerative spondylolisthesis.

Vertebral artery dissection presenting with multilevel combined sensorimotor radiculopathy: a case report and literature review.

Study Design: This study is a case report demonstrating a rare clinical presentation of vertebral artery dissection. We believe that this is the first reported case with multilevel combined sensorimotor radiculopathy. We have also included a literature review.
