Introduction:
The number of reoperations increases with the growing number of operations performed.
Methods:
The clinical material included a group of 2194 patients treated surgically due to degenerative disease of the lumbar spine; we selected a total of 332 patients who were reoperated, and the indications for reoperation were analysed.
Results:
The percentage of patients operated due to adjacent segment disease in the group of patients with stabilization was on average 8.9%.
Conclusions:
Indications for stabilizing or preservation of the mobility of the operated segment should provide for the nature of the lesions, and anatomical and surgical conditions.
