NEUROPROTECTION
• SPINAL CORD• NERVE ROOTS
![Page 5: SPINAL STENOSIS Jung U. Yoo, M.D. Professor and Chairman Department of Orthopedics and Rehabiliatation Oregon Health and Science University](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062715/56649d9e5503460f94a889bf/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
PATHOPHYSIOLOGY
• “Three-joint Complex”– a large tripod with the
disc as the front support and two facet joints as the back supports
– Any alteration in one of these joints can lead to damage to the others
