    • Decompression with or without Fusion in Degenerative Lumbar Spondylolisthesis 

      Austevoll, Ivar Magne; Hermansen, Erland; Fagerland, Morten Wang; Storheim, Kjersti; Brox, Jens Ivar; Solberg, Tore; Rekeland, Frode; Franssen, Eric; Weber, Clemens; Brisby, Helena; Grundnes, Oliver; Algaard, Knut; Bøker, Tordis; Banitalebi, Hasan; Indrekvam, Kari; Hellum, Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-08-05)
      BACKGROUND In patients with lumbar spinal stenosis and degenerative spondylolisthesis, it is uncertain whether decompression surgery alone is noninferior to decompression with instrumented fusion. METHODS We conducted an open-label, multicenter, noninferiority trial involving patients with symptomatic lumbar stenosis that had not responded to conservative management and who had single-level ...
