Abstract
|
|
|
Cervical spondylolytic spondylolisthesis is a rare congenital anomaly. It is often misunderstood as a result of trauma. However, most of them are congenital deformities. The vast majority of patients with radiographically proven cervical spondylolysis can be treated confidently with conservative measures. Cervical spondylolytic spondylolisthesis that cause symptoms requiring surgery is very rare. Surgical intervention should be reserved for those who fail non-operative management or exhibit neurologic compromise referable to an unstable spondylolytic defect. We report a case of cervical radiculopathy in a 45-year-old female patient who had been diagnosed with spondylolytic spondylolisthesis at the sixth verterba and treated with surgery.
