•38The AP and PA oblique
projections are helpful in
demonstrating spondylolysis.
What is the definition of this
condition?
• Spondylolysis is defined as the
breaking down of the vertebra,
usually at the pars
interarticularis of the lumbar
vertebrae. It is an acquired bony
defect that may affect one or both
sides of the lamina between the
articular processes of the
vertebrae.
39
• Critique?
• The positioning error
suggested is overobliquity or excessive
rotation of the patient.
40
• Zygapophyseal
joints and
pedicles are
posterior to the
vertebral body
and indicate
over-obliquity

ankylosing spondylitis
• Ankylosing spondylitis is
a rheumatoid arthritis
involving the SI joints and
spine,
• It is characterized
radiographically by
ossification of the outer
portion of the annulus
fibrosus and osteophyte
formation between the
vertebrae (bone
spurring).

• What are the major differences
between spondylolysis and
spondylolisthesis?
• Spondylolisthesis is the forward
displacement of one vertebra on
another vertebra. It is a
degenerative or congenital
condition predominantly seen at the
L5–S1 level. This condition almost
exclusively involves the lumbar
spine
•67The AP and PA oblique
projections are helpful in
demonstrating spondylolysis.
What is the definition of this
condition?
• Spondylolysis is defined as the
breaking down of the vertebra,
usually at the pars
interarticularis of the lumbar
vertebrae. It is an acquired bony
defect that may affect one or both
sides of the lamina between the
articular processes of the

OTHER POSTIONS
LECTURE ONLY
• What projections can be taken to
determine the range of motion of the spine
at the level of the spinal fusion?
• FLEXION / EXTENSION
• BENDING (LATERAL)
136
bending
•These projections are functional studies of the lumbar spine to
determine the range of motion of the spine at the point of spinal fusion.
• Following spinal fusion surgery, the orthopedic physician or
neurosurgeon may order a study to evaluate the flexibility of the spine.
•These projections will require the patient to assume different positions to
determine how much flexibility of the spine has returned.
•Early signs of scoliosis and herniated intervertebral disk or HNP can be
evaluated with these projections.

Flexion / extenison

What is HNP ?
• HNP refers to
Herniated Nucleus
Pulposus
• a situation in which
the nucleus pulposus
extrudes through an
aspect of the annulus
fibrosus of the
intervertebral disk.
141
laminectomy
• The term laminectomy is defined as the
surgical removal of the bony arch of one or
more vertebrae. Laminectomy is
performed to remove a portion of the
intervertebral disk to relieve compression
of the spinal cord or one of the spinal
nerves due to HNP. An aspect of the bony
arch must be removed to provide access
to the herniated disk.
