Особенности строения шейного отдела позвоночника у лиц юношеского и зрелого возраста

Abstract

Abstract Background: Marginal forms of the cervical lordosis (hyper- and hypolordosis) can be the reason of different deviations – neurological, cardiological, ophtalmological. The aim of the investigation – frequency of the cervical lordosis marginal forms and peculiarities of cervical vertebral column structure determination in individuals of juvenile age. Material and methods 100 x-rays of cervical part of the vertebra in individuals of juvenile and mature age were analyzed. 22 x-rays (11 male and 11 female) without changes in cervical vertebra structure and any pathology in anamnesis, which could influence on the vertebral column condition and its osseous tissue were taken for future investigation. Cervical part of the vertebra height and length, cervical lordosis level and depth, correlation of the received indexes in different stages of cervical part of the vertebra physiological curve expression were determined. Results: Determined that cervical lordosis depth can be maximal on the level of C2 -C5 among healthy individuals of the juvenile and mature age of both sexes. Middle level of lordosis prevails in the male group, high and middle lordosis level – in female group. Low level of lordosis meets rarely in male and female. High cervical lordosis level has, as a rule, not big depth, low – bigger, and differential of the indexes of the height and length of the cervical part of vertebra is smaller in individuals with high and middle lordosis level than in individuals with low lordosis level. Conclusions: received peculiarities are important for clinical vertebrology and also should be taken to consideration while examination of the patients with pathological conditions and deviations of organs functions which topographically or functionally connected with cervical part of the vertebral column.
