Study Design. Prospective clinical study. Objective. To test whether elastic stabilization with the Dynesys system (Zimmer Spine, Minneapolis, MN) provides enough stability to prevent further progression of spondylolisthesis as well as instability after decompression for spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis. Summary of Background Data. In spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis, decompression and fusion is widely recommended. However, patients have donor site pain. In… 
Minimum Four-Year Follow-up of Spinal Stenosis With Degenerative Spondylolisthesis Treated With Decompression and Dynamic Stabilization
TLDR
In elderly patients with spinal stenosis and degenerative spondylolisthesis, decompression and dynamic stabilization lead to excellent clinical and radiologic results, however, the degenerative disease still is progressive and degenerated motion segments remains a problem.
A Hybrid Dynamic Stabilization and Fusion System in Multilevel Lumbar Spondylosis
TLDR
During a follow-up period of over 2 years, both patients with spondylolisthesis and those with stenosis showed improvements and similar disability and pain scores after surgery using the DTO system.
Minimum ten-year follow-up of spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis treated with decompression and dynamic stabilization.
TLDR
Decompression and single and double level dynamic in situ stabilization with the Dynesys System demonstrate good clinical and radiological long-term results in elderly patients.
Dynamic Neutralization of the Lumbar Spine After Microsurgical Decompression in Acquired Lumbar Spinal Stenosis and Segmental Instability
TLDR
The reported biomechanical principles of Dynesys do not reflect advantages in outcome compared with none or others stabilization systems after microsurgical radicular decompression reported in the literature.
Dynesys® dynamic stabilization outcomes in degenerative spine surgery.
TLDR
Spinal dynamic stabilization by Dynesys® presents good long-term clinical and radiological outcomes with a lower rate of complications than pre- viously published cohorts and lumbar fusions but best indications seem to be degenerative spondylolisthesis.
Decompression and interspinous dynamic stabilization using the locker for lumbar canal stenosis associated with low-grade degenerative spondylolisthesis.
TLDR
Decompression and interspinous dynamic stabilization using the Locker yielded favorable clinical and radiological outcomes for lumbar canal stenosis with grade I DS and could be an alternative for spinal fusion, however, further long-term follow-up studies are necessary.
Dynamic stabilization for degenerative diseases in the lumbar spine: 2 years results
TLDR
From the data, which fail to show significant improvements and reflect a high revision rate, it cannot generally recommend dynamic stabilization as an alternative to fusion and Comparative trials with longer follow-ups are required.
Short term outcome of posterior dynamic stabilization system in degenerative lumbar diseases
TLDR
Dynesys group showed a greater improvement in ODI and VAS back and leg pain scores compared with the PLIF group, and Dynesys showed a higher preservation of motion at the operative levels, based on short term followup.
Dynamic Stabilization for Degenerative Lumbar Scoliosis in Elderly Patients
TLDR
Dynamic stabilization with pedicle screws in addition to decompressive laminectomy resulted a safe procedure in elderly patients with degenerative lumbar scoliosis; it was able to maintain enough stability to prevent progression of scoliotic instability and instability.

Prospective Study of Surgical Treatment of Degenerative Spondylolisthesis: Comparison Between Decompression Alone and Decompression With Graf System Stabilization
TLDR
Although lumbar Graf stabilization had no effect in preventing the recurrence of leg symptoms, there was a significant effect on reduction of low back pain at the 1- and 3-year follow-ups.
1997 Volvo Award Winner in Clinical Studies: Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis With Spinal Stenosis: A Prospective, Randomized Study Comparing Decompressive Laminectomy and Arthrodesis With and Without Spinal Instrumentation
TLDR
In patients undergoing single‐level posterolateral fusion for degenerative spondylolisthesis with spinal stenosis, the use of pedicle screws may lead to a higher fusion rate, but clinical outcome shows no improvement in pain in the back and lower limbs.
Minimum 5-year results of degenerative spondylolisthesis treated with decompression and instrumented posterior fusion.
TLDR
At a minimum 5-year follow-up the complication rate, reoperation rate, radiographic results, and patient satisfaction with surgical treatment of lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis by means of segmental posterior instrumented fusion with decompression is assessed.
The role of fusion and instrumentation in the treatment of degenerative spondylolisthesis with spinal stenosis.
TLDR
There was significantly more spondylolisthesis progression in groups I and II than in group III (p = 0.001), and a higher proportion of "spondyllisthesis unchanged subjects" reported they were helped by the surgery than those whose spONDylolistshesis progressed postoperatively.
Patient outcomes after decompression and instrumented posterior spinal fusion for degenerative spondylolisthesis.
TLDR
Patients treated with decompression and fusion for degenerative spondylolisthesis had improved functional outcomes, when measured by a disease-specific questionnaire and by widely used instruments.
Degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis. II. Surgical treatment.
TLDR
The authors analyze the results of operative treatment in 32 cases of degenerative spondylolisthesis with various degrees of compression of the nervous structures, finding bilateral laminotomy is indicated in patients with isolated nerve root canal stenosis and interspinous wiring may be useful for immediate vertebral stabilization.
The dynamic neutralization system for the spine: a multi-center study of a novel non-fusion system
TLDR
Dynamic neutralization proved to be a safe and effective alternative in the treatment of unstable lumbar conditions, and compare well with those obtained by conventional procedures; in addition to which, mobile stabilization is less invasive than fusion.
Lumbar stenosis with spondylolisthesis: current concepts of surgical treatment.
TLDR
The current authors will review the pathogenesis, clinical picture, and treatment recommendations for degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis and conclude that the addition of an arthrodesis improves the clinical outcome.
Rationale for Spinal Fusion in Lumbar Spinal Stenosis
TLDR
In those with stenosis following prior lumbar surgeries, although not statistically significant, those who had concomitant decompression and arthrodesis had a better outcome than those in whom decompression only was done.
Degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis with spinal stenosis. A prospective study comparing decompression with decompression and intertransverse process arthrodesis.
TLDR
In the patients who had had a concomitant arthrodesis, the results were significantly better with respect to relief of pain in the back and lower limbs.
