Relation between grades of intervertebral disc degeneration and occupational activities of patients with lumbar disc herniation [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2017 Background/Aim. Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) occurs as consequence of combined effects of genetic, agerelated, environmental and occupational factors. Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) develops mostly due to IDD.
