The use of percutaneous transpedicular fixation in traumatic spondylolisthesis of L5 vertebra without neurologic complications in 37 years old patient is presented. Surgical intervention, technical capability and peculiarities of surgery when using low invasive technique for vertebral body reduction are described. In cases of non-complicated injury percutaneous transpedicular fixation could be a prospective alternative to a standard fixation technique. However it should not be recommended to wide clinical application as it requires special skills and experience in use of low invasive systems and appropriate instrumentation.
