ATA/369/1996Cour de justice / Chambre administrative25 juin 1996
The case concerns social insurance coverage for a disc hernia alleged to arise in the context of accident insurance. The available material indicates that the medical condition was non-traumatic. No further procedural or dispositive details are provided.
Art. 6 LAA; accident insurance coverage for a non-traumatic disc hernia. Where a spinal disc hernia is not shown to be of traumatic origin, the decisive question is whether the statutory accident nexus is established. In the absence of a proven accident-related causal mechanism, the claim to accident insurance benefits cannot be derived merely from the existence of the lesion; the insured event must meet the statutory requirements of causation and accident character.
