Physicians and surgeons at �����Ƶ’s Spine Center offer research-based care for people who have spondylolisthesis, a condition in which a vertebra—one of the bones that make up the spine—slips forward and out of place. For some people, the condition causes chronic low back pain.��

In younger people, spondylolisthesis may occur as the result of a fracture in the vertebra, called spondylolysis, which may be present at birth or may develop as a result of an injury. In adults, a vertebra may move out of place as the result of age-related joint degeneration, such as osteoarthritis of the spine.��

�����Ƶ spine specialists in orthopedics, neurology, and neurosurgery use sophisticated imaging techniques to determine the location and extent of a displaced vertebra. These experts work together to recommend treatment designed to alleviate pain and restore function, helping you return to an active lifestyle as quickly as possible.

�����Ƶ doctors also diagnose and manage spondylolisthesis in children and adolescents.
