A diagnosed case by CT spine shows L4 and L5 stenosis with diffuse disc bulge. What is the treatment and how successful will be the surgery

hi gigi,
sorry you are experiencing discomfort. i'm not a dr but have had 45 years experience with stenosis. only a spinal surgeon can give you an accurate solution to a stenosis problem. i couldnt begin to recommend a particular procedure. i do know a little about the dynesey system.
it has been used in europe for over ten years.
not many surgeons in the usa are trained in inserting it
it has yet to be approved by the fda
there is concern as to how long it will last especially in regards to durability of pedecule srews that screw into vertebrae.
if i were convinced this was the surgery i wanted i would make sure my surgeon had many hundreds of these procedures under his belt. i would get opinions from several surgeons.
just recently a board of advisors overwhelmingly recommended to the fda that it not be approved! be very careful and do your research....pete
