The CT pathology and clinical manifestation of 174 patients who suffered from lumbar lateral recess stenosis were analysed. Results At the levels of L1 and L2, the lateral recess was found in about 34% normal persons.At the levels of L3 to S1, the lateral recess was found in all healthy persons.All patients who suffered from lumbar lateral recess stenosis had narrow AP sagittal diameters of lumbar lateral recess (
