Lumbar Spinal Instability

Lumbar Spinal Instability is a clinical construct characterized by an abnormal physiological response of the lumbar spine to mechanical loads, wherein excessive or aberrant intervertebral motion exceeds normal kinematic tolerances, leading to pain, neurological compromise, or deformity, and distinguishing it from stable spinal configurations within the spectrum of spinal pathomechanics.
