title: The syndromes of low back disease.
abstract: The details of the various clinical syndromes are presented in the text, with further expansion by the various references. I attempted to summarize these in Tables 1 and 2. As in all aspects of medicine, the ultimate disease problem is a blend of various factors. Probably no single syndrome can stand alone without aspects of the others, but if a rational treatment plan is to be undertaken, some framework for action must be involved.
