In this volume, a distinguished orthopedic surgeon presents comprehensive, practical guidelines for the diagnosis and management of low back pain syndromes. The initial chapters familiarize the reader with the epidemiology, anatomy, and physiology of low back pain, offer useful suggestions for conducting the physical examination, and describe the use of radiographic and laboratory testing procedures in evaluating low back pain. Dr. Kahanovitz then presents effective strategies for managing common lumbar spine disorders, including idiopathic low back pain, herniated lumbar disc, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, and lumbar instability. He also gives valuable advice on dealing with postoperative complications and the failed back syndrome.
