Comparative analysis of morphologival parameters in isolated and fused L5 spondylolysis patients on the basis of CT features by Rui Ma, Xiaoxia Huang, Luyao Li, Ye Kai, Jun Liu, Gao Leilei, Xiangning Sun, Yong Teng

“…Patients with a pars interarticularis separation distance ≥ 2 mm were classified into the isolated group (Group A, 66 patients), while those with a separation distance < 1 mm were classified into the fused group (Group B, 51 patients).Additionally, 117 patients without spondylolysis but experiencing lower back pain were included as the control group (group C). Multislice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) was used to measure the morphological parameters of the L5 vertebra in all three groups, including the sagittal pedicle height (SPH), transverse pedicle width (TPW), transverse pedicle vertical length (TPVL), pedicle screw trajectory length (PSTL), pedicle angle of attack (PAA), frontal vertebral body height (FVH), posterior vertebral body height (PVH), sagittal midline intervertebral space height (SMISH), horizontal vertebral body angle (HVA), and vertical vertebral body angle (VVA). …”
