Multifidus Degeneration, a New Risk Factor for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Case–Control Study

Highlights • Multifidus degeneration was analyzed in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS). • LSS patients had lower muscularity, higher fatty infiltration ratio than controls. • Patients with LSS showed significant multifidus muscle asymmetry on MRI. • Multifidus degeneration may be a risk fact...

Zusammenfassung:	Highlights • Multifidus degeneration was analyzed in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS). • LSS patients had lower muscularity, higher fatty infiltration ratio than controls. • Patients with LSS showed significant multifidus muscle asymmetry on MRI. • Multifidus degeneration may be a risk factor for the development of LSS.
