Non-traumatic lumbar spondylolysis with contralateral pedicle and lamina fracture: a case report and review of the literature.

Lumbar spondylolysis of a single lumbar vertebra with a fracture of the pedicle on the opposite side, as well as fractures of both pedicles and bilateral spondylolysis, have been extensively reported in the literature. These cases are commonly linked to factors such as trauma, sports activities, and spinal surgeries. We report a unique case of a unilateral lumbar spondylolysis with a fracture on the opposite side including the pedicle and lamina. To the best of our knowledge, this specific case has not been previously reported. Additionally, we provide a comprehensive assessment of the existing literature on this subject.
