dc.description.abstractBackground: Spondylolysis is a defect in the pars interarticularis of the vertebra that occurs frequently in high-performance young athletes. Although nonsurgical management is the mainstay of treatment, surgery is an option for patients with persistent symptoms despite multiple cycles of nonsurgical treatment. Performing a minimally invasive technique reduces complications, postsurgery pain, and hospitalization time and leads to a quick recovery. The aim of this study was to report the clinical results of a series of 3 patients treated with a modification of the Buck technique with a minimally invasive approach. Methods: Three high-performance athletes between 17 and 18 years old who were managed nonsurgically for at least 6 months underwent a modified Buck technique repair with a minimally invasive approach using cannulated compression screws, with neuronavigation and neuromonitoring. Patients were followed at least 6 months with computed tomography scans to assess consolidation and fixation status. Following rehabilitation and in the absence of pain, all 3 athletes returned to their respective sports. No complications were reported. Results: All patients presented with bilateral spondylolysis, at L3 in 1 case and at L5 in 2 cases. Patients received conservative management for 12-36 months before surgery. After surgery, consolidation was obtained at 4 months in all patients, who returned to their sports activities in <6 months. Conclusions: The proposed technique shows the advantages of performing minimally invasive surgery in young high-performance athletes, ensuring consolidation and early return to sports activity without complications.es
