(ANSA) – ROME, MAY 09 – “Do you know what the real secret is to not having back problems? Keeping fit and not putting too much burden on the spine”. Like a doctor among doctors, Carlo Verdone inaugurates the 45th National Congress of and of the Italian Scoliosis Group with a lectio magistralis entitled ‘Back pain, this is known’. “It is a pathology – explains Verdone – which has various levels of treatment. I try to keep it under control but let no one ever say that I am a hypochondriac anymore”. A story “born on the set of Cursed the Day I Met You, although I must say I saved the lives of several people. Like when I diagnosed colon cancer in a friend of mine who survived thanks to my surgery. Once he recovered, he thanked me and you know what he did? He offered me a gricia. Well, he could have done a little more.” At the end of the lectio magistralis, Verdone was subjected to a test to become an honorary member of SICV&GIS. What is epistropheus? And the tail? And what is meant by kyphoplasty? The national Carlo, impeccable, passed the exam with flying colours. “Fortunately – says the actor – they asked me simple questions and I managed to get by and, for me, who am passionate about medicine, it is a source of great pride”.
A three-day event, inaugurated by Verdone, to debate scientific innovations on the subject and to present the results that research is obtaining on various fronts. Starting from the study on rehabilitation with robots and use of exoskeletons financed with tens of millions of euros by the Pnrr.
