SUMMARY

Degenerative Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (LSS) is an extremely common condition affecting more than 102 million people each year. It is a narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower back. It causes pain and even disorders of the lower limbs. When the symptoms get worse and the individual feels functional discomfort despite medical treatment, surgical intervention is recommended. Two surgical options are available: Rigid Stabilization Devices as conventional fusion with or without cage, or dynamic stabilization system as B-DYN device, this system is called dynamic because it allows the stabilization of the operated part while preserving a certain mobility. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerance of B-Dyn versus conventional bolted fusion (with or without cage) in the treatment of degenerative lumbar stenosis (DLS) on the degree of postoperative functional incapacity. So the investigator's hypothesis is that the use of the B-DYN device in the treatment of DLS could lead to the maintenance of functional disability related to low back pain (maintenance of walking and mobility). Another important point to be demonstrated in this study is the preservation of the mobility of the stage overlying the assembly performed by B-Dyn. Indeed, the continued degeneration of segments adjacent to lumbar vertebral fusions is a concern for surgeons For B-Dyn, which is a dynamic stabilization, the combination of rigid and flexible parts allows the mobility of the overlying stage to be preserved and could also lead to a decrease in adjacent syndrome in the long-term compared to the use of conventional fusion. The duration of patient follow-up is 60 months. The inclusion period is 56 months to recruit the necessary number of subjects for the study (a total of 216 patients is expected).

Treatments
Experimental: B-DYN Device
The surgical technique for placement of the B-Dyn device is performed under general anaesthesia. The procedure begins with the insertion of the first upper polyaxial screw which is screwed in with the polyaxial screwdriver. The use of the phantom (Trial 10) is necessary in order to position the second screw. Once the screws are positioned, the B-Dyn is taken between the jaws of the gripping forceps in order to insert it into the heads of the polyaxial screws. The movable rod of the B-Dyn is then placed in the head of the upper screw. The positioning mark of the fixed rod must be placed facing the operator and in the center of the lower screw head. Finally the cap of the lower polyaxial pedicle screw is tightened. A final tightening of the two plugs on the polyaxial pedicle screw heads is performed to fix the assembly.
Active_comparator: Conventional bolted fusion (with or without cage)
The surgeon will complete his gesture by placing 2 screws in the upper vertebra and 2 screws in the lower vertebra; the screws will be connected to each other to stabilize the assembly. This type of surgery is done via posterior approach and under general anaesthesia.
