Facet arthropathy is a degenerative condition affecting the facet joints in the spine at the L4-L5 level. A synovial cyst may form due to increased pressure within the joint. Treatment options may include pain management, physical therapy, and in severe cases, surgery to alleviate pressure on the nerve roots.

Which of the nerve plexuses originates from ventral rami L1 through L4?
The lumbar plexus originates from ventral rami L1-L4. It supplies nerves to the lower abdominal wall, pelvic region, and parts of the lower limb. Key nerves arising from this plexus include the femoral nerve and the obturator nerve.
Spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level of L4 to S4?
Spinal nerves exiting the cord from the level of L4 to S4 supply motor and sensory innervation to the lower extremities, including the buttocks, thighs, legs, and feet. They contribute to functions such as walking, standing, and bladder control. Damage to these nerves can lead to symptoms such as weakness, numbness, and pain in the lower body.
The major plexuses of the spinal cord?
The major plexuses of the spinal cord are the cervical plexus (C1-C5), brachial plexus (C5-T1), lumbar plexus (L1-L4), and sacral plexus (L4-S4). These plexuses are networks of nerves that supply motor and sensory function to various regions of the body.

How should you punctuate this sentence The L4-5 level reveals changes of moderate facet arthropathy with again relative stenosis of the canal on the same basis?
The sentence should be punctuated as: "The L4-5 level reveals changes of moderate facet arthropathy, with again relative stenosis of the canal on the same basis." This punctuation helps separate the two clauses for clarity.

What causes facet effusions at L4-L5?
Instability of that particular motion segment. More than likely there is a disc bulge causing radicular pain down the left back into the buttocks and eventually down the leg.
What is degenerative changes within the facet joints?
The facet joints are small joints that run down both sides of the spine. Bilateral means both sides. Degenerative change is the "wear and tear" type of arthritis. Basically, it means the joints on both sides of the spine are "shot". This can cause pain and can be treated with anti-inflammatory medications and injections. Unfortunately, the injections are often multiple, painful and have to be done a few times before they work - but they usually do eventually work.
