What Does Grade II Spondylolisthesis At L5-S1 Mean?
my mother, aged about 70 years, has been finding mobility very tough and can't walk very much. No pain though. She had her MRI that reads: grade II spondylolisthesis at L5-S1. Due to listhesis, pseudo bulge is observed at L5-S1.
What does this mean and what do we do now? Thanks a lot.
She need to be operated but as she is 72 years old so she can be taken for operation only after getting fitness for operation from the cardiologist and general physician.
A Neuro surgeon will be operating the case of your mother.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Mohammed Abdullah
