Discogenic spondylosis, which is often thought of as a form of spinal osteoarthritis, refers to a degenerative condition that affects the joints of the spine.
Spondylosis (from Ancient Greek ÏÏÏÎ½Î´ÏÎ»Î¿Ï spÃ³ndylos, a vertebra, in plural vertebrae â the backbone) is a broad term meaning degeneration of the spinal column from any cause. In the more narrow sense it refers to spinal osteoarthrosis, the age-related wear and tear of the spinal column, which is the most common cause of spondylosis. The degenerative process in osteoarthritis chiefly affects the vertebral bodies, the neural foramina and the facet joints (facet syndrome).
