Abstract

Low backache is one of the commonest complaints encountered in clinical practice even amongst our youngsters having significant economic consequences to the affected patient, especially young employed individuals thereby leading to loss of national income by loss of labor working days. This study was aimed at evaluation of non traumatic causes of low backache in young adults with MRI lumbosacral spine and their pathologic correlation.

Keywords- Non traumatic low backache, MRI lumbosacral spine, Young adults.
