Spinal stenosis: Sounds like you have hypertrophic facets which can contribute to spinal stenosis, meaning that they can put pressure on the nerves and cause radiating pain down the leg. So to answer your question- yes.

Hypertrophic?: Hypotrophic suggests the joint didn't grow into the right size. Unsure, but I would suggest you see a spine specialist to address what your MRI findings are and how that relates to sciatica pain.
