Abstract
Spondylolisthesis is afrequent disease that is found in 20% of the adult population and is particularly accompanied by lumbar back pain. Degenerative spondylolisthesis develops in adulthood and is most often found in the L4/5 segment, in contrast to nondegenerative spondylolisthesis which is most often situated in the L5/S1 segment. Prior to every treatment the heterogeneous disease pattern has to be classified according to the severity grade of the olisthesis and to the Spinal Deformity Study Group (SDSG) classification. High-grade spondylolisthesis should preferably be surgically treated and low-grade spondylolisthesis should preferably be treated conservatively. In approximately 50% of all recently acquired spondylolistheses healing of the lysis can be achieved by a consequently carried out conservative treatment.
