Successful surgical management of lateral spinal stenosis.
The past operative management of low back disease in the United States has been in such a morass that the medical profession and society have tended to avoid addressing the issue. As with all poorly understood disease entities the situation has changed dramatically as it has become better documented, logically comprehensible, and thus potentially treatable in an effective manner. An important key to this new understanding has been the delineation of lateral spinal stenosis as a disease process and its meaning in regard to the FBSS.
