Résumé

La pathologie dégénérative du rachis du sujet âgé combine deux problèmes: d’une part, la dégénérescence discale à l’origine d’une perte de lordose cervicale et lombaire, d’autre part, une augmentation de la cyphose thoracique. Le premier problème paraît inéluctable et dépend probablement en grande partie de la génétique de chacun, comme le suggèrent les travaux de Battié et al. [1]. Le second problème découle de l’ostéoporose, qui favorise l’affaissement des vertèbres thoraciques, phénomène amplifié par les fractures en compression, non seulement thoraciques, mais aussi lombaires.
