Abstract
To study the relationship between the lumbar vertebrae structural asymmetry and motor control
dysfunction in patients with lumbar disc degeneration diseases.
Description
X-ray anatomical asymmetry of the posterior support complex elements (first of all, the asymmetric
size of the articular and transverse processes, the spinous processes rotation – the sites of the beginning
and attachment of the fibers of the multifdus muscles), accompanied by different length and
tone of the right and left muscle bundles. This leads to a change in muscle interaction and potentiates
the change in intersegmentary movements with a violation of functional lumbar-pelvic stability.
An additional pathomechanical effect may exert asymmetry of the magnitude and tension of
the spine short ligaments (capsular, inter- and supraspinous, intertransverse). This situation causes
a violation of absorption of torsion loads and tensile loads, which perceives the intervertebral disc
and articular capsule at vertical loads and movements of the spine.
