Degenerative spondylolisthesis is more commonly found in women. The overall annual age-standardized rates of degenerative spondylolisthesis are higher among women than among men. A prospective study was conducted on patients with degenerative spondylolisthesis in adults treated with posterior lumbar interbody fusion with posterolateral fusion in the Department of Orthopedics.

About 26.67% adult patients are having symptoms since 4years, 10.67% having since 2 years, and 16% having since 3 years. About 57.34% females were included in study.
