摘要:

我国已经进入老龄化社会，老年脊柱退变性疾病发病率高、对其治疗尚欠科学或规范。一方面存在认识上的落后，治疗上的不及时，方法上的不正确或不合理；另一方面，又存在认识上的过进，治疗上的过度。如何正确和合理诊治老年脊柱退变性疾病是当前临床医学领域中面临的一大问题。应该重视和提倡发展适合我国国情的老年脊柱退变性疾病的合理和合情的科学现代治疗原则，即阶梯化和个体化原则。

Abstract:

The incidence of spinal degenerative disease is increasing in the elderly as China has entered the aging society, but we lack a scientific or standard treatment for this disorder. On one hand, for reasons of behindhand understandings, there are some untimely treatments, and incorrect or unreasonable methods. On the other hand, there are some radical understandings and over-treatments for the disease. It is a big problem we faced in the current clinical practice, which is how to correctly and reasonably diagnose and treat this disease. So we should emphasize and advocate reasonable, sensible and scientific principles of modern strategies which are suitable for our national conditions, that is stepwise and individual principle.
