This narrowing can affect the spinal canal, the lateral recess, or the neural foramen (the nerve \u201cexit\u201d opening). It is used as a diagnosis on imaging reports and in specialist visits to explain certain back and upper-leg symptoms. Because it sits in the upper lumbar spine, it can involve structures close to where the spinal cord transitions to nerve roots."}
