Overview
Pathophysiology
Physiology
The normal physiology of [name of process] can be understood as follows:
Pathogenesis
- The exact pathogenesis of back pain depends on the underlying cause.
- Back pain can be broadly classified into inflammatory, mechanical, degenerative, oncologic and infectious.[1]
| Type of back pain | Pathophysiology |
| Inflammatory | Inflammation of joints (sacroiliitis), inflammation of enthesis (spondyloarthritis) |
| Mechanical | Trauma, muscle sprain, extra weight on muscles (pregnancy, heavy lifting), |
| Oncologic | Lytic lesions in spine, nerve compression due to mass effect, pathologic fracture due to weakened bone |
| Degenerative | Cartilage degradation and bone remodeling decreases elasticity and causes pain , fractures can also occur due to osteoporosis, |
| Infectious | Infection involving spine, disc, joints, abscess formation. |
Genetics
[Disease name] is transmitted in [mode of genetic transmission] pattern.
OR
Genes involved in the pathogenesis of [disease name] include:
- [Gene1]
- [Gene2]
- [Gene3]
OR
The development of [disease name] is the result of multiple genetic mutations such as:
- [Mutation 1]
- [Mutation 2]
- [Mutation 3]
Associated Conditions
Conditions associated with [disease name] include:
- [Condition 1]
- [Condition 2]
- [Condition 3]
Gross Pathology
On gross pathology, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
Microscopic Pathology
On microscopic histopathological analysis, [feature1], [feature2], and [feature3] are characteristic findings of [disease name].
