Spondylolisthesis of the thoracic spine is less common than that of the lumbar spine. The authors describe a rare case of thoracic spondylolisthesis in which the patient suffered back pain and myelopathy. The patient was a 44-year-old woman. Plain radiography revealed Grade I T11\u201312 spondylolisthesis. The pedicle\u2013facet joint angle at T-11 was 118\u00b0, greater than that of T-10 or T-12. Postmyelography computerized tomography scanning revealed posterior compression of the dural sac as well as enlargement of and degenerative changes in the facet joint at T-11. Magnetic resonance imaging showed anterior and posterior compression of the spinal cord at the level of the spondylolisthesis. To achieve posterior T10\u201312 decompression, the surgeons performed a laminectomy and posterolateral fusion in which a pedicle screw fixation system was placed. The patient\u2019s back pain disappeared immediately after the operation. The authors conclude that the enlargement of the pedicle\u2013facet joint angle and the degenerative changes of the facet joint caused the thoracolumbar spondylolisthesis.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3171\/spi.2006.4.5.415","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,1,24]],"date-time":"2008-01-24T12:20:46Z","timestamp":1201177246000},"page":"415-418","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":13,"title":["Spondylolisthesis of the thoracic spine"],"prefix":"10.3171","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Yoichi","family":"Shimada","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuji","family":"Kasukawa","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Naohisa","family":"Miyakoshi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michio","family":"Hongo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shigeru","family":"Ando","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Eiji","family":"Itoi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Akita University School of Medicine, Akita, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1754","reference":[{"key":"b1-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00024720-200204000-00001"},{"key":"b2-0040415","first-page":"1369","volume":"42","author":"Ishibashi K","year":"1999","journal-title":"Seikei Saigai Geka"},{"key":"b3-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"325","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620X.32B3.325","volume":"32","author":"Macnab I","year":"1950","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Br"},{"key":"b4-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00007632-199807010-00004"},{"key":"b5-0040415","first-page":"25","volume":"44","author":"Otoshi K","year":"2000","journal-title":"Tohoku Seisai Kiyo"},{"key":"b6-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"467","DOI":"10.2106\/00004623-197557040-00004","volume":"57","author":"Rosenberg NJ","year":"1975","journal-title":"J Bone Joint Surg Am"},{"key":"b7-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1620\/tjem.184.1"},{"key":"b8-0040415","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/00006123-198704000-00014"},{"key":"b9-0040415","first-page":"582","volume":"89","author":"Tseng SH","year":"1990","journal-title":"J Formos Med Assoc"}],"container-title":["Journal of Neurosurgery: Spine"],"original-title":[],"link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/view\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/4\/5\/article-p415.xml","content-type":"text\/html","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/downloadpdf\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/4\/5\/article-p415.xml","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,6]],"date-time":"2020-11-06T23:23:00Z","timestamp":1604704980000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/thejns.org\/view\/journals\/j-neurosurg-spine\/4\/5\/article-p415.xml"}},"subtitle":["Case report"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,5]]},"references-count":9,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5"},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3171\/spi.2006.4.5.415","relation":{},"ISSN":["1547-5654"],"issn-type":[{"value":"1547-5654","type":"print"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,5]]}}}
