There are presented also some non-vertebral joints, in which lesions often co-occur with changes in spine. Discussing a given disease was presented its definition, etiology, pathogenesis, epidemiology, recognition – diagnosis. There are also presented some cases of secondary changes resulting in degenerative changes of spine, for example tuberculosis, osteoporosis, alkaptonuria, injuries. There was emphasized the importance of additional specialized tests (e.g. X-ray, histology, orthopedic, DNA).
