Abstract

Introduction:

Atypical Scheuermann disease involves one or two vertebral bodies which result in kyphosis.

Case Report:

An 18-year-old male presented in OPD with a complaint of chronic lower back pain without any lower limb pain and neurological deficit. Radiological imaging and blood parameters were in favor of atypical Scheuermann disease.

Conclusion:

Radiological and blood investigations are required to rule out other possible causes of chronic back pain to make a diagnosis of atypical Scheuermann disease which should be treated conservatively initially.

Keywords:

Degenerative Disc Disease I: Introduction

Degenerative Disc Disease I: Introduction

Degenerative disc disease is a chronic condition in which intervertebral discs gradually lose structure and function. It is not infectious or autoimmune; rather, it results from age-related biochemical and mechanical changes, influenced by genetic, metabolic, and environmental factors.Structure and Function of DiscsThe spine contains 23 intervertebral discs that absorb load, distribute forces, maintain spacing, and allow flexibility. Each disc consists of a nucleus pulposus, a gel-like core...

Degenerative Disc Disease ll: Pathophysiology

Degenerative Disc Disease ll: Pathophysiology

The symptoms of degenerative disc disease arise from a combination of mechanical compression, vascular compromise, and biochemical inflammation, which together disrupt nerve function and produce pain.Mechanical CompressionDisc degeneration reduces height and elasticity, predisposing to herniation of the nucleus pulposus, a major cause of radicular pain. Herniations may be protrusion (bulging with intact annulus), extrusion (nucleus extends beyond disc but remains connected), or sequestration...
