R. I. HARRIS M.B., F.R.C.S.(C)1 and J. J. WILEY M.D., F.R.C.S.(C)1

1 609 Medical Arts Building, Toronto 5, Ontario, Canada

Five cases of acquired spondylolysis following spine fusion are presented. An autopsy specimen of a lumbosacral fusion is included as the sixth case, which demonstrated such a defect in the isthmus at the upper margin of the fusion. A brief résumé of the theories of the etiology of isthmus defects is presented along with a discussion of the acquired nature of the particular example of spondylolysis considered here.
