Back surgery without fusion: does the spine Self-Correct?
NCT ID NCT07139938
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether people with a curved spine (sagittal imbalance) from lumbar spinal stenosis can have their spine naturally straighten after a simple decompression surgery, without needing a more complex fusion procedure. Researchers will measure spine alignment changes in 165 adults aged 45 and older over time. The goal is to understand if less invasive surgery alone can restore balance.
