 The last well formed disk space is again referred to as L5-S1. There is grade 1 retrolisthesis at L3-4, unchanged. Patient is status post partial L1 and complete L2 laminectomies and resection of previously identified intradural mass at the level of L2. IIn the operative bed there is diffuse enhancement of the soft tissues extending up to and including, to some degree, the dorsal dura, compatible with scarring. There is no nodular soft tissue or suspicious enhancement within the thecal sac to suggest recurrence. There is no canal stenosis or compression of the thecal sac. Multilevel degenerative changes are not substantially changed since the prior exam. There is desiccation with loss of disk height at L2-3, L3-4 and L5-S1. Disc bulges at L3-4, 4-5, and 5-1 are again identified. Modic type II endplate degenerative changes at L3-4, unchanged.
Expected postoperative changes status post resection of the previously identified L2 intradural mass and laminectomies, as described above, with no evidence of recurrence.
