Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

I have studied your case.

Pars interarticularis fracture is usually unstable.
If there is any cord compression with lower limb weakness then you may need decompression.
If fracture is unstable then you may need fixation.

You need decompression if fracture is compressing spinal cord.
Decompression is necessary if neurological deficit or bladder involvement is there.

If there is no neurological involvement then conservative brace or rest is sufficient

Later on follow rehabilitation and physiotherapy.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
