A 51-year-old female patient with segmental-type OPLL.

, 2022
(a) A lateral plain radiograph shows segmental-type OPLL (arrow) at the C5-6 level. (b) A sagittal image of cervical spine CT also demonstrates the segmental ossifications (arrow) at C5-6 level (window width = 2000 HU, window level = 500 HU).

Epidemiology of ossification of the spinal ligaments and associated factors in the Chinese population: a cross-sectional study of 2000 consecutive individuals

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2019
Background The epidemiology and cause of ossification of the spinal ligaments (OSL) remains obscure. To date, there is no study that comprehensively evaluates the prevalence, distribution, and concomitance of each type of OSL by CT among general Chinese ...

DLX5 regulates the osteogenic differentiation of spinal ligaments cells derived from ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament patients via NOTCH signaling

JOR Spine, 2023
Background Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligaments (OPLL) is common disorder characterized by heterotopic ossification of the spinal ligaments. Mechanical stimulation (MS) plays an important role in OPLL.

MRI of cervical OPLL.

Orthopedics & Traumatology, 1990
MRI findings of 41 patients with cervical OPLL were investigated. The 41 patients consisted of 28 males and 13 females with a mean age of 59 years (range, from 43 to 80 years). According to the morphological classification of OPLL, 12 patients had continuous type, 13 had mixed type, and 16 had segmental type.
