Impact of asymmetric L4–L5 facet joint degeneration on lumbar spine biomechanics using a finite element approach

Abstract This study investigated the effects of asymmetric facet joint degeneration on spinal behavior and adjacent structures using finite element analysis (FEA). Facet joints play a critical role in providing spinal stability and facilitating movement. Degenerative changes in these joints can lead...
