The genetics of intervertebral disc degeneration. Familial predisposition and heritability estimation.

Joint bone spine - 1 Jul 2008

Kalichman Leonid, Hunter David J

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: To review current knowledge on heritability of intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). IDD can contribute to the development of low back pain and acute lumbar radiculopathy. Dramatic change in the current view of risk factors for IDD from one where age and mechanical factors were paramount to the current theory that genetic risk factors are predominant, we thought that it is important to review the...
