FEATURES OF THE COURSE OF LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS

Abstrak

Lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is the narrowing of the central spinal canal (central stenosis) or of the concave and intervertebral lateral foramens. LSS is one of the most common causes of back pain in the elderly. Clinical signs of the disease are localized lumbar muscle pain and naughty - radical symptoms that occur when walking. A diagnosis of LSS is most likely to reveal paralysis during walking and stopping, regression during advance or sitting in elderly patients. Treatment strategies are determined by clinical conditions, not by changes identified in imaging studies. The most important diagnostic criterion is walking distance. Treatment strategies for patients with LSS are not fully established, as there is insufficient evidence that different treatment options work.
