Objective: To conduct a bibliometric analysis of lumbar spondylolysis research in the Web of Science database over the past 23 years. This analysis aimeds to determine the field's knowledge graph and explore the development trends, research focus, and frontiers in lumbar spondylolysis.
Methods: We conducted a study of lumbar spondylolysis research papers obtained from the WOS Core Collection. Excel, CiteSpace, and VOSviewer were used to analyze and visualize the data. Our analysis included the number of published articles; the distribution of journals, countries, and institutions; and the cluster of authors, keywords, and references.
Results: We found 1890 papers on lumbar spondylolysis, published in 380 journals, including 7328 authors from 634 institutions in 68 countries/regions. Over time, the number of studies on lumbar spondylolysis has gradually increased. Spine magazine published the most articles, making it the most cited journal. The United States and Japan have published the most papers, whereas Tokushima University has been the most influential institution. Koichi Sairyo published the most articles and received the highest number of co-citations. The research categories include orthopedics, clinical neurology, surgery, sports science, and medical imaging. The areas of recent interest include standardized conservative treatment, appropriate surgical planning, postoperative recovery exercises, avoidance of surgical complications, and biomechanical finite element analysis.
Conclusion: Research on lumbar spondylolysis has received increasing attention. The CiteSpace and VOSviewer software can provide bibliometric and visual analyses. Our study provides valuable information for future studies on lumbar spondylolysis.

Aim: To determine the frequency of spondylolysis (SLi) in children examined due to trauma,which has not been reported before in Turkey, and to discuss the demographic features of these casestogether with accompanying secondary pathologies.
Material And Methods: Between January 2013 and June 2023, lumbar computed tomography (CT) scansperformed due to traumafor children aged 0-18 years were evaluated. Demographic data of the patients, the unilateral or bilateral occurrence of SLi,and additional findings detected on CT were recorded.

Background: Low back pain is a prevalent issue with various etiologies, one of which includes pars interarticularis (pars) defects. While traditional fluoroscopic guidance has been the standard for administering injections, both fluoroscopic and ultrasound-guided injections for the management of low back pain have been shown to be similar in efficacy. The benefits of ultrasound guidance include real-time visualization, reduced radiation exposure, and improved patient access.

Objective: To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of the "Three-Step Nine-Method Lumbar Correction" combined with physical therapy in the treatment of patients with degenerative lumbar spondylolisthesis(DLS).
Methods: From January 2021 to December 2021, 72 patients diagnosed with DLS were enrolled and divided into the Three-Step Nine-Method Lumbar Correction group and the pelvic traction group, with 36 cases in each group. In the Three-Step Nine-Method Lumbar Correction group, there were 15 males and 21 females;aged 54 to 66 years old, with an average of (59.

Case: A 14-year-old national-level badminton player presented with bilateral L5 pars interarticularis defects with pseudoarthrosis, unresponsive to conservative management. Computed tomography confirmed bilateral pars defect with sclerosed margins without spondylolisthesis or canal compromise. The patient underwent robotic-assisted minimally invasive pars repair augmented with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein.
