Abstract/Notes
A rare multi-level isthmic spondylolisthesis was discovered in a young male patient following an acute onset of low back pain. The prevalence of spondylolisthesis in the adult population is low and it is believed that the prevalence of multiple level spondylolisthesis is even rarer. A combination of onset of ambulation, hereditary factors, and sports involving hyper-extension of the spine are predisposing factors. Conservative treatment such as chiropractic manipulation and rehabilitation of the spine are first treatment options before surgical intervention is considered. The clinical presentations, radiographic features, treatment options including rehabilitation methods are discussed. [Full text is available free online for this article; click on the above link.
