Safety and efficacy of a new percutaneously implantable interspinous process device
Conclusions  The In-space is a percutaneous treatment option of claudication in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis. Compared with microsurgical decompression surgery, recurrence rate within 1 year is, however, high and the device seems not suitable for the treatment of low back pain. Therefore, the authors suggest that the device should presently be used primarily in controlled clinical trials in order to get more information concerning the optimal indication.

12. Pain Originating from the Lumbar Facet Joints
Although the existence of a “facet syndrome” had long been questioned, it is now generally accepted as a clinical entity. Depending on the diagnostic criteria, the zygapophysial joints account for between 5% and 15% of cases of chronic, axial low back pain. Most commonly, facetogenic pain is the result of repetitive stress and/or cumulative low-level trauma, leading to inflammation and stretching of the joint capsule. The most frequent complaint is axial low back pain with referred pain perceived in the flank, hip, and thigh. No physical examination findings are pathognomonic for diagnosis.

Spontaneous fusion across the apex of severe thoracolumbar Scheuermann’s kyphosis: A surgical consideration
Athanasios I TsirikosIndian Journal of Orthopaedics 2010 44(3):349-353Considerable debate exists regarding the pathogenesis, natural history and treatment of Scheuermann's kyphosis. Surgical correction is indicated in the presence of severe kyphosis which carries the risk of neurological complications, persistent back pain and significant cosmetic deformity.

This is an important consideration if surgical correction of the kyphosis is planned.
