Patients who underwent surgery at the L4?5 level exhibited disc heights that were notably higher than those who underwent surgery at the L5-S1 level. In Group 1, 68% of the patients had surgery at the L4-5 level, compared to only 41.7% in Group 2 (p=0.009).</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>When investigating the effects of the position of the L5 vertebra in relation to the ICL at the L4-5 and L5-S1 disc levels, the study found that having a deeply seated L5 vertebra protected against L5-S1 disc herniation and that L4-5 disc herniation was more common in these patients. This is believed to be due to the L5?S1 segment being less mobile when the L5 vertebra is deeply seated.</p>","PeriodicalId":94381,"journal":{"name":"Turkish neurosurgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140144989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
