Background:

Degenerative changes in the spine are common and occur in most people, these changes can develop into other conditions, such as bone spurs or oesteophytes, nerve compression, and can be cause pain. This study designed to study the histological changes of spinal conditions among Sudanese patients.

Materials and Methods:

This was prospective cross-sectional and laboratory based study, conducted at the research laboratory of the National Centre for Neurological Sciences (NCNS), Khartoum, Sudan during the period of from June 2022 to September 2022. It included all operated patients admitted to the National Center for Neurological Sciences and were diagnosed with degenerative spinal conditions, demographical data (gender, age, occupation, and duration of pain), clinical data (radiological diagnosis), and histological result.

Results:

In this study, the most common affected was male, the most common age groups in this study was 21 – 30 years, the most influential occupation in this study was workers, and histological result showed that, myxoid material extend to outside the cartilage.

Conclusion:

Myxoid material it is considered one of the causative factors of pain in patients with spinal degeneration.
