Lumbar spinal stenosis
If anyone with a similar case or any doctors please suggest what type of surgery I should go for?
This written in my report
L2-3: Combination of narrow spinal canal combined with mild broad-based disc bulging and bilateral mild facet OA results
in moderate-severe central canal stenosis with complete effacement of the CSF. There is no associated disc herniation.
Foramina are widely patent.
L3-4: Severe spinal canal stenosis due to combination of congenitally narrow spinal canal and mild broad-based disc
bulging, no disc herniation. Mild narrowing of bilateral foramina due to lateral extension of the disc bulge.
L4-5: Superimposed on congenital narrow spinal canal and broad-based bulging disc, small central disc protrusion
resulting in severe spinal canal stenosis with complete effacement of the CSF.
Mild-to-moderate bilateral facet OA. Mild bilateral foraminal narrowing.
L5-S1: There is a small central disc protrusion which results in bilateral subarticular zone narrowing encroachment
traversing S1 nerve roots. Central canal is adequate. No significant foraminal narrowing.
Multilevel severe spinal canal stenosis with chronic impingement of the cauda equina nerve roots. This is due to
combination of developmentally short pedicles resulting in scenario osseous canal and superimposed disc bulges.
Small disc protrusions of L4-5 and L5-S1 discs.
Recommend surgical consultation.
