About the Author

The "Bone and Joint Decade" draws out attention with increased intensity to the problem of the changes related to aging of our musculoskeletal system and the associated socioeconic implications. This text will help to better understand the nature of the different changes in the spine of the elderly. It contributes to enabling us to diagnose and to treat this complex problem in an appropriate way.
