  Spondylolisthesis occurs when one vertebra in the spinal column becomes fractured and the spine slips out of place, usually in the lumbar area. […] Spondylolisthesis is one of the most common causes of persistent back pain in children and adolescents but does not always cause discomfort. […] Treatment for spondylolisthesis is similar to treatment for other causes of mechanical and compressive back pain. Doctors may prescribe rest during the acute phase, including avoidance of sports, to help relieve symptoms. Special braces, casts, or corsets may be used to help heal a stress fracture and to ease pain. We may also encourage you to work with a physical therapist. Specific exercises are important for rehabilitation and return to sports. […] If conservative treatments for spondylolisthesis fail to manage your pain, we may recommend surgery. Surgical treatment should relieve both mechanical and compressive pain as well as any pressure on spinal nerves. The surgical procedure for spondylolisthesis is known as decompressive laminectomy of the lumbar spine and will free up or decompress the affected nerves.
