Interlaminar stabilization and decompression for the treatment of bilateral juxtafacet cysts: Case report and literature review.

•Lumbar juxtafacet cysts are typically treated by resection alone or resection combined with posterior instrumentation.•Resection with instrumentation is associated with a lower rate of recurrence but also with increased cost and morbidity.•We present a case of bilateral juxtafacet cysts causing neurogenic claudication treated with decompression and interlaminar stabilization.•Complete symptom resolution was sustained at one-year follow-up.•Decompression followed by interlaminar stabilization may be a reasonable alternative for some patients.
