The objective of the present study was to conduct an integrative review of studies related to the musculoskeletal assessment of the lower quarter, focusing on physical examinations and functional tests applicable to surfers. This integrative review was carried out through a literature review, evaluating and analyzing papers from national and international journals indexed in the scientific databases Scielo and PubMed. The developement and analysis involved a panel of experts in the field of medicine and surfing health composed of physical educators, physiotherapists and sports doctors. This guideline aims to complement the information presented in the upper quarter article, emphasizing the prevalence of musculoskeletal injuries in the lower quarter among surfers and guiding outpatient assessments.

To summarize the scientific evidence related to LFA in the surgical correction of spondylolisthesis. The database chosen to papers selection was PUBMED, based on the following search string: ((lumbar[title/abstract] AND facet[title/abstract] AND arthroplasty[title/abstract]) OR tops[title /abstract]) AND spondylolisthesis[title/abstract], including studies published in the last 10 years. Results: Initially, 9 papers were identified that met the previously established search strategy. After reading the titles and abstracts, 1 text was excluded because it did not deal with the application of LFA in spondylolisthesis, leaving 8 studies for review. Significant clinical improvement, maintenance of radiological stability and low complication rates were consistently observed with the use of LFA. Furthermore, economic analyzes indicated that the TOPS System is a cost-effective and economically dominant option compared to conventional approaches such as TLIF. These findings suggest that the TOPS system may be a viable and advantageous alternative for patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis, offering not only clinical but also long-term economic benefits.
