Lumbar Spine Pathology Spondylolisthesis Isthmic Low Grade physical therapy videos. The inter-vertebral disc and the facet joints are the points that connect and stabilize adjacent vertebrae. They allow some movement while keeping adjacent vertebrae correctly aligned.
Spondylosis can occur from increased stress on the back, particularly from movements like repeated back extension and rotation. The bony pars can develop stress fractures on one or both sides. This can happen to gymnasts, dancers, divers, pole-vaulters, high jumpers, weight lifters and football players, and usually occurs at the fourth or fifth lumbar vertebra. If these stress fractures expand, the pars can break. As well as being painful, the break permits abnormal movement between adjacent vertebrae. This causes accelerated wear and tear of the vertebral column.
