A member asked:
My bones were unable to hold screws for pars fractures, report says laminectomy/bone graft completed in my case, what is this? success rate? recovery?

Ask your surgeon: So many variables to consider based on your question and description of events. The best thing I would recommend is to talk to your surgeon. She or he will have the best knowledge about what they found.
