What is the difference between spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease?

Discs often degenerate with age causing vertebrae to sit closer together. This is part of the reason we shrink with age. Degenerative discs can lead to pain via multiple pathways. Spinal stenosis is another condition of the spine where the central canal diameter is reduced much like a pipe that becomes clogged.

Is degenerative disc disease the same as osteoarthritis?

However, degenerative disc disease and osteoarthritis are different conditions and can occur separately: one can have degenerative discs without any facet osteoarthritis; or one can have facet osteoarthritis without degenerative discs.

What is L4 L5 degenerative disc disease?

The L4-L5 disc is at a high risk of degeneration. This risk may be due to increased loads at the L4-L5 motion segment and decreased movement in the segments below this level. A change in disc height due to degeneration may affect the lordosis of the lumbar spine.

What is adjacent segment disease?

A: Adjacent segment disease (ASD) is a condition that sometimes occurs after a spinal fusion surgery to join or "lock" two or more bones together, stopping the natural motion at that level. Degenerative changes develop on the discs and joints above or below the level where a previous surgery was performed. It is also known as transitional syndrome or adjacent segment degeneration.

Is adjacent segment disease more likely to develop in the neck or lower back?

A: Yes. Studies have shown that adjacent segment disease is more likely to develop in the neck (cervical spine) and low back (lumbar spine) than in the thoracic (chest-level) region. This is likely because the cervical and lumbar spine are the most mobile regions of the spine, while the thoracic spine is essentially immobile because of our ribs.

What is the term for a degenerative disc disease?

Degenerative changes develop on the discs and joints above or below the level where a previous surgery was performed. It is also known as transitional syndrome or adjacent segment degeneration.

Is artificial disc replacement a surgical procedure?

A: Artificial disc replacement ( arthroplasty) has shown promise to be an effective surgical option in the cervical spine. The device preserves motion at the fusion level and is thought to protect against adjacent segment disease by causing less stress at the adjacent levels than a fusion.

Is artificial disc replacement good for cervical spine?

However, not all patients are good candidates for a disc replacement.
