Official Title: Investigation of the Relationship Between the Frequency of Lumbar Facet Tropism and Disc Herniation and Spondylolisthesis in Patients With Low Back Pain Complaints
Brief Summary:
This retrospective study investigates the relationship between lumbar facet tropism and the occurrence of disc herniation and spondylolisthesis in patients with low back pain who underwent lumbar MRI.Facet tropism, defined as asymmetrical facet joint rotation, is hypothesized to influence spinal biomechanics and contribute to degenerative processes.The study will evaluate MRI scans of patients with low back pain to determine the presence of facet tropism, disc herniation, and listhesis at L3-L4, L4-L5, and L5-S1…
