Dr. Corenman discusses the importance of Adolescent and Lower Back Pain. When he grew up learning about the spine, people were not talking about lower back pain, let alone kids with lower pain having catastrophic problems. If you have a kid with lower back pain, they had a “tumor” or an “infection.” In reality, kids can and do get significant problems just like adults do and it is more genetically related. Now we have tools to be able to figure this out and how to diagnose these symptoms.

This is what causes kids back pain known as adolescent potential pain generators:
-Annual tears, DDD
-Adolescents disc dysplasia, Scheuermann’s Disorder
-HNP and Apophyseal fractures (Limbus vertebra)
-Facet disorders
-Stress fractures (pars, pedicle and sacrum)
-Isthmic spondylolisthesis
-Inflammatory disordres (Ankylosing spondylitis)
-Tumors and infections

During this lecture, these topics are covered: development of the growing spine, vertebral growth plates (ring apophysis), growth plate closures, adolescent disc dysplasia (ADD), ADD endplate fractures with open apophysis width of vertebra enlarges, degenerative disc disease/annular tears, thoraco-lumbar Scheuermann’s disorder, late thoracolumbar Scheuermann’s, thoracic Scheuermann’s disease, Scheuermann’s disorder similar to adolescent disc dysplasia, pars stress fractures, pars treatment (needs CT of segment), surgical pars repair indications, initial diagnosis of pedicle stress fracture and 3 months of bracing, fracture diagnosis and 5 months of bracing and healing, unilateral fracture with stress reaction (sclerosis) on the opposite side, pedicle fracture (analog of pars fracture), SI stress fracture, Bertolotti’s Syndrome, HNP in adolescents, Limbus vertebra, apophysical ossification, tumors and infections, discitis, ankylosing spondylitis, Bilateral SI Involvement (AS), Spondyloarthopathies (symptom differentiation in adolescent lower back pain), flexion and extension issues with poor range of motion, R Pars stress fracture, compression fracture L2, and bilateral pars fracture,

Dr. Corenman provides numerous adolescent case examples on the information shared above in relation to lower back pain in children

With more than 30 years of experience, Donald Corenman, MD, DC, is a highly-regarded spine surgeon, considered an expert in the area of neck and back pain. His training as a Doctor of Chiropractic early in his career did not satisfy his desire for a deep understanding of the mechanics of the spine. This led him to medical school where he completed his Doctor of Medicine, Orthopedic Surgery Residency and Spine Surgery Fellowship. His study of spinal disorders and deformities brought him to Vail, Colorado where he joined The Steadman Clinic in 1994. With personalized clinical care a cornerstone of Dr. Corenman’s practice, he has been awarded the “Top 10 Doctor Award”, “Patient’s Choice Award”, “Compassionate Doctor Recognition” and is consistently recognized by Becker’s Spine Review in “Top Spine Surgeons to Know.”

Dr. Corenman has published two books: for patients, “Everything You Wanted to Know About the Back: A Consumers Guide to the Diagnosis and Treatment of Lower Back Pain” and for the medical community, “The Clinician’s Guidebook to Lumbar Spine Disorders: Diagnosis & Treatment”. He is passionate about educating patients on spine anatomy and disorders, so they have the ability to partner with their physicians in finding the most effective treatment for their back pain and disorders. His focus on peer education earned academic appointments as Clinical Assistant Professor and Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center, and his research on spine surgery and rehabilitation has resulted in the publication of multiple peer-reviewed articles.
