本文根据5年来对109例后纵韧带骨化症和18例黄韧带骨化症的诊治经验,对椎旁韧带骨化症的诊断和治疗进行了总结。椎旁韧带骨化是指由椎旁韧带骨化、椎间盘突出症(DISH)、腰椎后纵韧带骨化(OPLL)和腰椎前纵韧带骨化(OLF)频繁共存引起的疾病。在日本,PLL和OLF孤立性骨化的发生频率仍不确定。DISH在欧洲或北美并不罕见,常与椎体后部骨化有关,但症状可能较轻。日本症状性患者发生率可能更高的主要原因可能是相关的椎管狭窄。(C)1998爱思唯尔科学爱尔兰有限公司保留所有权利。
This is an overview of paravertebral ligamentous ossification based on our 5-year experience in ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament (109 cases) and ossification of ligamentum flavum (18 cases). Paravertebral ligamentous ossification is designated as the disorder caused by frequently coexisting ossification of paravertebral ligaments, DISH, OPLL, and OLF. The frequency of the occurrence of isolated ossification of PLL and OLF in Japan is still uncertain. DISH, which is not rare in Europe or North America, is frequently associated with ossification of the posterior aspect of the vertebral bodies, but it may be less symptomatic. The major cause of the probably higher incidence of symptomatic patients in Japan may be due to associated narrowing of the spinal canal. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
