When L4 slipped forward, it occupied the posterior part of the spinal canal, and the hypertrophic articular process occupied the lateral recess, causing compression symptoms of cauda equina and nerve root. In the elderly, the elasticity of the tissue around the spine is weakened, and the degeneration of the joint capsule is also the main factor of lumbar spondylolisthesis.
