At the L2-L3 level, above described subluxation with disc bulge asymmetric to the right is noted causing mild right foraminal narrowing and mild bilateral lateral recess stenosis without significant central canal stenosis or foraminal narrowing. Mild facet changes are present. At the L3-L4 level, disc bulge with facet changes are present causing mild bilateral foraminal narrowing and mild canal stenosis. At the L4-L5 level, above described subluxation with disc bulge and osteophyte asymmetric to the left is noted with facet changes causing severe left and moderate right foraminal narrowing. Disc bulge with ligamentous thickening is present causing severe central canal stenosis. At the L5-S1 level, osteophyte asymmetric to the right with facet changes are present causing moderate right foraminal narrowing as well as moderate left and severe right lateral recess stenosis. No significant left foraminal narrowing is present. The conus is normal shape and position. There is no evidence of prevertebral or paraspinal soft tissue abnormality. IMPRESSION Osteophyte with facet changes causing moderate right foraminal narrowing at L5-S1 with moderate left and severe right lateral recess stenosis.
