Article Synopsis
- Bertolotti syndrome (BS) is a condition often overlooked in young people with chronic lower back pain, linked to unusual lumbosacral vertebrae.
- A case study of a 19-year-old woman showed BS was diagnosed after imaging confirmed fusion of a vertebra, leading to significant pain and movement restrictions.
- The patient opted for conservative treatment with medication and exercise, resulting in a full recovery at the six-month follow-up, highlighting the need for better awareness of BS in chronic pain assessments.
