    AbstractThe solution to the failed back syndrome will come from the surgeon who masters the technology, the pathology and the surgery and who understands the patient. The back is normally dynamic and the failed back is no longer dynamic. The multimodality approach has validity and requires attention to the brain as well as the local pain site. Neuro-augmentation is a variable but critical component of pain control. Welfare systems that promote disability may undermine successful therapy. Solutions to great problems usually come from men who are passionate, observing and skilful.Copyright © 2015 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
