Traumatic Lumbosacral Spondylolisthesis: A Case Report.

INTRODUCTION

Traumatic lumbar spondylolisthesis is rare disease and in the literature, different surgical approaches, including anterior, posterior, or combined approaches (posterior and anterior) are used to treat the lesion.

CASE PRESENTATION: We treated a case of traumatic lumbosacral spondylolisthesis using posterior approach and the patient showed a satisfactory outcome. At the final follow-up, he was completely asymptomatic, and radiographic images revealed normal lumbar alignment and a solid interbody fusion.

CONCLUSIONS

Traumatic lumbosacral spondylolisthesis can be treated using posterior approach alone to obtain reduction, decompression, and solid fusion.
