Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Total of 60 patients with a diagnosis of spinal stenosis is planned for 30 patients, with physical therapy modeling and exercise, and 30 patients with surgical treatment. Patients will be evaluated by the same physician 5 times, before early primary treatment, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month and 12th month after treatment.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients between 40-85 years old who are hospitalized and treated with the diagnosis of LSS in Physical Medicine and rehabilitation, Orthopedics and Neurosurgery Clinics will be included in the study. The diagnosis of LSS will be made by MR and / or CT and neurogenic claudication history.

Total of 60 patients with a diagnosis of spinal stenosis is planned for 30 patients, with physical therapy modeling and exercise, and 30 patients with surgical treatment, and the duration of the study is considered to be 24 months. Patients will be evaluated by the same physician 5 times, before early primary treatment, 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month and 12th month after treatment.

Clinical evaluation will be done by the same physician. In patients with spinal stenosis, pain (movement, rest, night) VAS, functional status walking distance and ILBDI (Istanbul waist pain disability index) inquiry form, Nottingham Extended Life Profile will be used.
