Various study designs used in investigations with good to excellent short- and mid-term results have been reported in the current literature. However, there is a lack of information concerning long-term outcomes following treatment for spinal stenosis with degenerative spondylolisthesis.
Methods: The aim of our study was twofold. Firstly, to assess whether the dynamic stabilization in situ with the Dynesys System without bone grafting provides enough stability to prevent progression of spondylolisthesis and secondarily to maintain significant clinical improvement in a long-term follow-up (FU). Therefore, the consecutive patients due to inclusion criterions underwent interlaminar decompression and stabilization with Dynesys instrumentation. Patients were evaluated clinically and radiologically after a minimum FU of 10 years. 
Results: At FU, the mean low back pain preoperatively (LBP) and leg pain preoperatively (LP) on visual analog scale (VAS) and North American Spine Society (NASS) improved significantly (P},
