5th lumber vertebrae and first sacral vertebra.
what is the treatment for a desiccated L5-S1
It means you have a slight herniation/slight bulging of the disc at the L5-S1 level of your spine.
If you are having an L5 S1 foraminotomy surgery it means the surgeons will enlarge the passageway of the first spinal nerve in your 5th lumbar vertebra.
It means that there is fluid in the disc in the degenerative spine.
No

what does moderate facet arthropathy l5-s1 mean
whatis anterior subluxation on L5 on S1 mean?
what does slight progression of degenerative marrow in the l5 - s1
lower answer
It means that the disc between L5-S1 has protruded out to one side (not centrally), and is affecting (most likely compressing) the S1 nerve root which is below the level of the herniation (the L5 nerve root has already exited the IVF). From this report I am assuming you are having some sensory or motor problems in your lower limbs?!
