To the diagnosis of vertebral radiculitis

Abstract

With the establishment of the discogenic nature of the so-called lumbosacral radiculitis, a new approach to the examination technique was required: although the predominant symptomatology is neurological, it is still secondary, while the primary is the lesion of the spine. The interlacing of orthopedic and neurological symptoms (compression of nerve formations, reflex muscular-tonic reactions, etc.) requires not a simple sum of old orthopedic and neurological techniques, but a combination of these old methods with a qualitatively new one - neuro-orthopedic (A.I. Osna and Ya. Yu. Popelyansky, 1966). Some methods of examination of patients with lumbosacral radiculitis are outlined by us in another work (1966). Here, we are talking about a study relating only to the lumbar region, with the main focus on the techniques worked out in the last three years.
