Prognostic Value of the Goutallier Scale for Paravertebral Muscle Atrophy in Predicting Disability and Pain Outcomes in Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Longitudinal Cohort Study of 100 Patients

Prognostic Value of the Goutallier Scale for Paravertebral Muscle Atrophy in Predicting Disability and Pain Outcomes in Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: A Longitudinal Cohort Study of 100 Patients

<b>Background/Objectives:</b> Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) is a prevalent cause of disability in elderly populations, often treated with decompressive surgery. However, postoperative functional outcomes are variable and influenced by factors beyond neural compression alone....
