Abstract

Aim. The current study aims to investigate the early out comes of the new technique applied to degenerative spinal disc disease (DSDD) patients. For this purpose 25 patients having DSDD, spinal stenosis and spondilolisthesis were included in the study. The treatments were performed on a two-stage procedure, first surgically with laminectomy, discectomy (when needed) and then the low invasive non-fusion dynamic stabilization with InterS.
