Lumbosacral spinal diseases and the associated neurological dysfunctions represent a major medical and social problem because of their high prevalence and the ever-increasing number of sufferers in the general population. Common entities include spinal tumors, congenital neural tube defects, sacral cysts, and degenerative spinal conditions. Though the main responsible lesion is usually localized in the lumbosacral spinal canal, a variety of neurological disturbances may occur, such as sensorimotor deficiencies, neurogenic bladder, and gastrointestinal dysfunctions. In the era of precision and integrated medicine, multi-disciplinary cooperation and individualized management have engendered an outburst of new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches as well as neurorehabilitation modalities. The primary aim of this Research Topic is to present recent advances in the integrated clinical management and neurorehabilitation for lumbosacral spinal diseases. Potential themes could include novel diagnostic tools, radioclinical or histopathological classification, evaluation strategies, treatment approaches, and neurological rehabilitation modalities of lumbosacral spinal diseases. We hope to provide a platform to deliver novel insights in the following topics, but not limited to: - Etiology and epidemiology of lumbosacral spinal diseases and the associated neurological dysfunctions. - Radioclinical or histopathological classification of lumbosacral spinal diseases. - Novel laboratory or radiological diagnostic tools for the evaluation of lumbosacral spinal diseases and the associated neurological dysfunctions. - Novel therapeutic or rehabilitation approaches for sensorimotor deficiencies, neurogenic bladder, or gastrointestinal dysfunctions caused by lumbosacral spinal diseases. - An integrated view or multi-disciplinary cooperation for optimizing the management of lumbosacral spinal diseases and the associated neurological dysfunctions. - Primary spinal cord tumors in children and adults or metastatic cancer to the spine. We welcome submissions of high-quality original research articles and reviews.
