Presentation Title:

Retrolisthesis: Post-operative complication of discectomy in long term follow up

Abstract

The study presents a case report of a 47-year-old male who experienced back pain for 7 months, leading to disc herniation at the L4-L5, L5-S1 levels. Following an open discectomy, the patient gradually recovered. However, after five years of post-operation, he developed mild back pain and numbness in the right foot's L5-S1 sensory area, later diagnosed with retrolisthesis through MRI analysis. This case report highlights the significance of post-operative complications in discectomy cases, emphasizing the need for careful monitoring and intervention in such scenarios. The study contributes valuable insights into the management of retrolisthesis as a rare complication of lumbar disc surgery, shedding light on the challenges and outcomes associated with surgical interventions in complex spinal conditions.
