Chronic spinal diseases, including deformities and muscular pain, are significant causes of morbidity among adults and the elderly. The scope of this study is to assess the life expectancy of Brazilians with chronic spinal diseases by sex and age between 2003 and 2008. The Sullivan method was used, combining the mortality/actuarial table with the prevalence of chronic spinal diseases. The mortality/actuarial tables published by the Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics (IBGE) were used and the prevalence of chronic spinal diseases was taken from the Brazilian Household Sample Survey (PNAD) for the years under scrutiny. The main results indicate that a man born in Brazil in 2008 could expect to live for 69.1 years, of which 15% with chronic spinal diseases. However, women born in the same year had a life expectancy of 76.7 years and could expect to live a fifth of their lives with chronic spinal diseases. Over the period under analysis, concurrently with gains in life expectancy, there was an increase in healthy life expectancy, or length of life lived without chronic spinal diseases, both in absolute and relative terms.
慢性脊柱疾病，包括脊柱畸形和肌肉疼痛，是成年人及老年人发病的重要原因。本研究旨在评估2003年至2008年间患有慢性脊柱疾病的巴西人的预期寿命，按性别和年龄划分。采用了沙利文方法，将死亡率/精算表与慢性脊柱疾病的患病率相结合。使用了巴西地理与统计研究所（IBGE）发布的死亡率/精算表，慢性脊柱疾病的患病率取自所审查年份的巴西家庭抽样调查（PNAD）。主要结果表明，2008年出生在巴西的男性预期寿命为69.1岁，其中15%患有慢性脊柱疾病。然而，同年出生的女性预期寿命为76.7岁，且预计有五分之一的生命患有慢性脊柱疾病。在分析期内，与预期寿命的增加同时，无论是从绝对还是相对角度来看，无慢性脊柱疾病的健康预期寿命，即健康生活的时长都有所增加。
