Clinical classification of vertebral neurological syndromes

Abstract

At present, when classifying vertebrogenic diseases of the nervous system (VZNS), methodological recommendations "Clinical classification of diseases of the peripheral nervous system", approved by M3 of the USSR (1987), are used as the basis. The applied classification does not fully reflect modern concepts of patho- and sanogenesis and complicates the use of many methods (manual therapy and reflexotherapy) necessary for the treatment and rehabilitation of patients with VNS.
