Abstract

Lower back pain is a common symptom, which is managed by various specialties including neurology, orthopedics, general medicine, and rheumatology. Lumbosacral transitional vertebra (LSTV) is an important cause of back pain, about which many clinicians are unfamiliar. It is a congenital malformation of the spine, which results from abnormal fusion of the sacrum with the vertebra above, to a variable extent. An extra joint is formed between the ala of sacrum and the elongated transverse process of the vertebra above on one or both sides. It leads to altered rotational movement of the lower spine, which gives rise to back pain. Spina bifida occulta (SBO) is another congenital malformation of the spine, which is detected incidentally because it does not cause any symptoms. We observed frequent co-existence of SBO and LSTV in patients attending our rheumatology clinic for lower back pain.

以下背部疼痛为表现的隐性脊柱裂和腰骶过渡椎体共存
腰痛是一种常见的症状,治疗方法包括神经病学、骨科、普通医学和风湿病学。腰骶过渡椎(LSTV)是引起腰痛的一个重要原因,许多临床医生对此并不熟悉。这是一种脊柱的先天性畸形,是由于骶骨与上面的椎体在不同程度上的异常融合造成的。在骶骨瓣和上面一侧或两侧的椎骨的细长横突之间形成一个额外的关节。它会改变下脊柱的旋转运动,从而引起背部疼痛。隐匿性脊柱裂(SBO)是脊柱的另一种先天性畸形,由于没有任何症状而被偶然发现。我们观察到经常并发SBO和LSTV的患者来我们的风湿病诊所治疗腰痛。
