The articles were grouped based on the treatment method after skimming the abstract, and then the indications, operative principles, and advantages/disadvantages were recorded.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Surgeries of spondylolysis are classified as interbody fusion, Buck's method, Scott's fusion, pedicle screw-hook system, memory alloy plates for internal fixation, segmental fusion and mini-invasive treatment. Among which, Buck's methods and pedicle screw-hook system are widely accepted. Additionally, minimally invasive treatment becomes more and more prevailed.
