The role of back injury or trauma in lumbar disc degeneration: an exposure-discordant twin study.

Spine - 1 Oct 2010

Hancock Mark J, Battie Michele C, Videman Tapio, Gibbons Laura

Abstract excerpt

STUDY DESIGN: Exposure discordant twin study. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of injury on lumbar disc degeneration in monozygotic twins with discordant exposures to recalled previous injury/trauma to the lumbar spine. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Disc degeneration is considered a primary source of low back pain. Despite this, important determinants of disc degeneration other than genotype have not been...
