      Aaen, Jørn; Austevoll, Ivar Magne; Hellum, Christian; Storheim, Kjersti; Myklebust, Tor Åge; Banitalebi, Hasan; Anvar, Masoud; Brox, Jens Ivar; Weber, Clemens; Solberg, Tore; Grundnes, Oliver; Brisby, Helena; Indrekvam, Kari; Hermansen, Erland (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-11-19)
      Purpose - The aim was to describe magnetic resonance imaging findings in patients planned for lumbar spinal stenosis surgery. Further, to describe possible associations between MRI findings and patient characteristics with patient reported disability or pain.<p> <p>Methods - The NORDSTEN spinal stenosis trial included 437 patients planned for surgical decompression of LSS. The following MRI ...

    • Decompression alone versus decompression with instrumental fusion the NORDSTEN degenerative spondylolisthesis trial (NORDSTEN-DS); study protocol for a randomized controlled trial 

      Austevoll, Ivar Magne; Hermansen, Erland; Fagerland, Morten; Rekeland, Frode; Solberg, Tore; Storheim, Kjersti; Brox, Jens Ivar; Lønne, Greger; Indrekvam, Kari; Aaen, Jørn; Grundnes, Oliver; Hellum, Christian (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-01-05)
      <p><i>Background - </i>Fusion in addition to decompression has become the standard treatment for lumbar spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis (DS). The evidence for performing fusion among these patients is conflicting and there is a need for further investigation through studies of high quality. The present protocol describes an ongoing study with the primary aim of comparing the ...

    • Study-protocol for a randomized controlled trial comparing clinical and radiological results after three different posterior decompression techniques for lumbar spinal stenosis: the Spinal Stenosis Trial (SST) (part of the NORDSTEN Study) 

      Hermansen, Erland; Austevoll, Ivar Magne; Romild, Ulla Kristina; Rekeland, Frode; Solberg, Tore; Storheim, Kjersti; Grundnes, Oliver; Aaen, Jørn; Brox, Jens Ivar; Hellum, Christian; Indrekvam, Kari (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-03-21)
      Background: <br> There are several posterior decompression techniques for lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS). There is a trend towards performing less invasive surgical procedures, but no multicentre randomized controlled trials have evaluated the relative efficacy of these techniques at short and long-term. <br> Method/design: <br> A multicentre randomized controlled trial [the Spinal Stenosis Trial ...
