Overview

Spondylolisthesis is a forward slip of one vertebra over the next. In younger patients it often stems from stress fractures; in adults it typically develops from disc and facet wear. Left untreated, it can pinch nerves, cause leg pain, and disrupt daily activities.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is spondylolisthesis?

A forward slip of one vertebra over another, most often from stress fractures in youth or degenerative changes in adults. See Back & Sciatic Conditions.

Can spondylolisthesis be managed without surgery?

Yes—most mild cases improve with medication, therapy, and bracing. See Physical Therapy & Rehab.

Do braces actually help?

Yes—braces can reduce pain and limit progression in early slips. Severe cases may need surgery. See Non-Surgical Therapies.

What role do injections play?

Fluoroscopy-guided injections can relieve nerve pain and improve mobility when conservative care isn’t enough. See Epidural Steroid Injections.

When is fusion recommended?

Fusion is considered for severe slippage, progressive instability, or worsening neurologic symptoms. See Spinal Fusion Surgery.

Is spondylolisthesis hereditary?

Some stress-fracture types may run in families, but degenerative cases are usually related to age and wear. See Degenerative Disc Disease.
