Neurologists are often called on to see patients who have low back pain presenting with significant chronicity and disabling pain. Even in situations of chronic low back pain, it has been estimated that a structural diagnosis is made only 60% of the time. Even when a physical diagnosis is made in these cases, it may be irrelevant to the primary causes of persistent pain and disability. This article is designed to point out that, when nonstructural factors are adequately rehabilitated, even in a worst-case occupational injury cohort, remarkable outcomes can be anticipated irrespective of the structural pathology, patient age, or postoperative impairment.
