Bertolotti's syndrome
Bertolotti's syndrome is a commonly missed cause of back pain which occurs due to lumbosacral transitional vertebrae (LSTV). It is a congenital condition but is not usually symptomatic until one's twenties or early thirties. However, there are a few cases of Bertolotti's that become symptomatic at a much earlier age. It is named for Mario Bertolotti, an Italian physician who first described it in 1917.
