Luigi Mangione Said He Had Spondylolisthesis: What Is It?
SHARE

Luigi Mangione, the suspect charged with the murder of UnitedHealthcare (UHC) CEO Brian Thompson, suffered from spondylolisthesis, a condition that causes the vertebrae to slip out of alignment and press on other vertebrae and nerves, resulting in severe back pain. Mangione, who reportedly told friends about his debilitating back pain, posted an x-ray of his spine on his X account, showing screws and rods inserted to stabilize the vertebrae.

Spondylolisthesis can occur in different regions of the spine, with various types such as degenerative, congenital, and isthmic spondylolisthesis. Symptoms of spondylolisthesis include back pain, leg pain, stiffness, difficulty walking or standing, and numbness, weakness, and tingling. Treatment options range from rest, painkillers, and physical therapy for milder cases to surgery for more severe cases.

Mangione, who was not taking any medication for his back pain, had expressed the need for surgery to friends and acquaintances. He had shared x-ray scans of his spine with a friend in Honolulu, where he had been living before the shooting. The connection between Mangione’s back condition and the shooting of the UHC CEO remains unclear, although Mangione was found with a handwritten manifesto at the time of his arrest, accusing health insurance companies of exploiting the country for profit.

The details surrounding Mangione’s back condition and surgery shed light on a possible motive for the tragic events that unfolded in Manhattan. Understanding the impact of spondylolisthesis on an individual’s physical and mental well-being highlights the importance of early diagnosis and appropriate treatment to prevent complications. As the investigation into the shooting continues, the role of Mangione’s medical history may provide valuable insights into the circumstances leading up to the incident.
