Letter
to the Editor concerning "A hypothesis of chronic back pain: ligament
subfailure injuries lead to muscle control dysfunction" (M. Panjabi).
Eur Spine J
(2007)
16(10):1733-5
In this response to Manohar Panjabi's previously posted
hypothesis we suggest to include the thoracolumbar fascia into the
proposed new explanatory model for chronic back pain. We present evidence that
the thoracolumbar fascia is significantly involved in all three levels of the
hypothesis: the transducer (mechanosensory) function of spinal connective
tissues, their structural role, and their proneness for subfailure injuries.
