Pateder DB(1), Brems J, Lieberman I, Bell GR, McLain RF. Author information: (1)Steadman Hawkins Clinic Spine Surgery, Frisco/Vail, Frisco, CO 80443, USA. drpateder@steadman-hawkins.com Nonspinal musculoskeletal disorders frequently cause neck and back pain and thus can mimic conditions of the spine. Common mimics are rotator cuff tears, bursitis in the hip, peripheral nerve compression, and arthritis in the shoulder and hip. A thorough history and physical examination, imaging studies, and ancillary testing can usually help determine the source of pain. DOI: 10.3949/ccjm.75.1.50
