What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study tested a minimally invasive procedure called CT-guided trans-facet screw fixation for 24 patients whose spine became unstable after a prior back surgery (laminectomy). Instead of open surgery under general anesthesia, the procedure uses a CT scan to guide small screws into the spine under local anesthesia. The goal was to see if this gentler approach could reduce pain and improve daily activities, potentially avoiding the need for another major operation.

Inclusion Criteria: * Treated at the University Hospital of Nice between march 2023 and january 2026 with trans-facet arthrodesis for persistent lumbar segment instability following previous laminectomy surgery. * MRI or scintigraphy imaging showed signs suggestive of instability * Newly developed or worsening spondylolisthesis on successive examinations * Congestive arthropathy * Facet dislocation * Inflammatory disc disease (MODIC type 1 changes) Exclusion Criteria: * Inability to tolerate the prone position under local anesthesia. * Presence of anatomical variants precluding the technical feasibility of transfacet fixation.
