Lordosis, unspecified - what does this mean
What happens during the disease - lordosis, unspecified
В норме человеческий позвоночник имеет 4 искривления: два лордоза (поясничный и шейный) и два кифоза (крестцовый и грудной). Все они расположены в переднезаднем (сагиттальном) направлении. Боковых искривлений (сколиоза) в норме быть не должно.
Первые признаки физиологических кифозов и лордозов обнаруживаются сразу после рождения. Однако у младенцев они выражены слабо. Изгибы становятся выраженными, когда ребенок начинает стоять и ходить, то есть, к окончанию первого года жизни. А окончательно анатомическая структура позвоночника формируется к 16-18 годам, когда происходит закрытие костных зон роста. Тем не менее, патологический лордоз может возникать как у детей и подростков, так и у взрослых. Причиной его развития в различных случаях становится как изменение формы и размера позвонков, так и другие патологические процессы в некоторых отделах опорно-двигательного аппарата.
При патологическом лордозе обычно наблюдается ряд характерных изменений. Позвонки смещаются кпереди, их тела веерообразно расходятся. В передних отделах отмечается разрежение костной структуры и расширение межпозвоночных дисков. Остистые отростки соседних с пораженным отделом позвонков уплотняются и сближаются. Если патологический лордоз возникает в детском или молодом возрасте, развивается деформация грудной клетки, сопровождающаяся сдавливанием и нарушением функции органов грудной полости. Могут также наблюдаться деформации других частей тела. При этом чем раньше появился лордоз, тем ярче выражены перечисленные изменения.
