This leads to facet joint hypertrophy and ligamentum flavum hypertrophy, and the disc protrudes posteriorly. Eventually leading to encroachment on the central canal and neural foramina due to facet joint osteophytes, ligamentum hypertrophy and disc bulging. Associated spondylolisthesis is common. Most commonly affects L4/L5, L5/S1 and L3/L4.

The spinal cord becomes narrow because of age-related degenerative changes that affect the vertebral column articulations, including disc bulging and spur formation, facet joint enlargement, and hypertrophy of the ligamenta flava and facet capsule. Encroachment is usually maximal at the disc spaces. Spinal stenosis is the term for this narrowing.

Disc narrowing, radial bulging, and vertebral osteophytes are related to spondylosis. Due to the ageing process, the nucleus pulposus extrudes into the vertebral bodies causing a reduction in the nucleus pressure and rise in the vertical load on the annulus, which ultimately bulges outward radially and even inward in certain situations.
SPINAL DISORDERS
(in axial plane) - anterior indentation by bulging disc and posterolateral indentations by degenerated facet joints and/or hypertrophied ligamenta flava. in symptomatic stenosis, contrast medium is usually excluded from involved level.

This is associated with facet joint disease and some ligamentum flavum hypertrophy. The facet joint disease is most severe at L5, where it combines with the protruding disc to cause significant neural foraminal stenosis, right greater than left." Edward Tang, M.D., performed a lumbar epidural steroid injection on September 1, 1999. Dr.

Typically, x-rays are taken to evaluate the alignment of the spine and extent of the degenerative bony changes. MRI scanning is helpful in defining and confirming nerve root impingement, disc bulging, ligamentum flavum hypertrophy, disc degeneration, and other soft tissue condition.

The latter may occur as a result of a congenitally narrow cervical spinal canal but is usually associated with spondylotic changes (osteophytes, disc bulged, facet and ligament hypertrophy). Infrequently spinal canal narrowing is produced by ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL).

Postmyelographic CT - circumferential stenosis (disc bulging, enlarged facets, ligamentum flavum hypertrophy). Differential Diagnosis - particularly important when dealing with condition that is commonly present as asymptomatic radiological finding!
