lüll Pathophysiology of lumbar disc degeneration: a review of the literature Martin MD; Boxell CM; Malone DGNeurosurg Focus 2002[Aug]; 13 (2): E1Lumbar disc degeneration occurs because of a variety of factors and results in a multitude of conditions. Alterations in the vertebral endplate cause loss of disc nutrition and disc degeneration. Aging, apoptosis, abnormalities in collagen, vascular ingrowth, loads placed on the disc, and abnormal proteoglycan all contribute to disc degeneration. Some forms of disc degeneration lead to loss of height of the motion segment with concomitant changes in biomechanics of the segment. Disc herniation with radiculopathy and chronic discogenic pain are the result of this degenerative process.|Humans[MESH]|Intervertebral Disc Displacement/pathology/physiopathology[MESH]|Intervertebral Disc/anatomy & histology/blood supply/*physiopathology[MESH]|Lumbar Vertebrae/anatomy & histology/blood supply/*physiopathology[MESH]|Spinal Diseases/pathology/*physiopathology[MESH] |
