Further study details as provided by University Hospital, Toulouse:

Primary Outcome Measures:

To evaluate the superiority of the osteosynthesis associated with a decompressive surgery in comparison with a simple decompressive surgery in the treatment of lumbar degenerative stenosis with spondylisthesis [ Time Frame: M3, M12, M18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:

improvement of patients' Quality of Life (SF36) [ Time Frame: M18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
radiologic stability of spondylolisthesis [ Time Frame: M18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
safety of the used surgical procedures [ Time Frame: M3, M12, M18 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Experimental: 1 osteosynthesis	Procedure: Osteosynthesis
Active Comparator: 2 Simple surgery	Procedure: Simple surgery Surgery without device

Detailed Description:

Randomized, comparative study on 152 patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis L4-L5 confirmed by radiography with radicular pain for whom the antalgic and anti-inflammatory treatment are not efficient for at least 3 months.

Patients randomized in 2 parallel groups (each group with 76 patients)

one group with decompressive surgery + osteosynthesis
one group with decompressive surgery Study duration : 18 months, including a selection visit, an inclusion with the surgical intervention, 3, 12, 18 months' follow up visits and a follow up call at 6 months.
