What does a annular tear at l-5 and grade 1 spondylolisthesis of l-5 at s1 mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on symptoms: If these are findings on your MRI hopefully the doctor who ordered it has shown you the pictures and discussed how it could relate to your problems. If not, get a better doctor. The annular tear is a fissure in the outside of the disc. Spondylolisthesis is when 1 vertebrae slips forward or backward on another. Google both terms and you'll get a lot of info.
