Slight slip: Grade i spondylolisthesis is slippage of up to 25% of one vertebral body with regards to the adjacent one. A mild grade i slip would suggest that the displacement is on the lower side of the range. However, it is more of a descriptive term and does not specifically mean a particular percentage.
