Comparative Study of the Cytokine Profiles of Serum and Tissues from Patients with the Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament

Biomedicines, 2023
Background: The ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is one of the contributing factors leading to severe cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM). The mechanism causing ossification is still unclear.

The corelation in the progression of ossification between the OPLL and the OALL in cervical OPLL patients.

Orthopedics & Traumatology, 1989
We studied radiologically the progression of ossification between the OPLL and the OALL in 52 cases of cervical OPLL patients who had been treated conservatively. Remarkable progression of the OALL was seen in 27 of 52 cases (52%). Considering corelation between the type of OPLL and the progression of OALL, remarkable progression of OALL was seen in 80%

Study for the hereditary trait of OPLL

Orthopedics & Traumatology, 1984
Hereditary trait of OPLL was studied radiographycally in twenty-two patients suffering from this disorder in the cervical spine. This study included ninety-nine persons of twenty-two families. The familial incidence of OPLL was found in nine families of twelve persons.

Distribution of ossified spinal lesions in patients with severe ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament and prediction of ossification at each segment based on the cervical OP index classification: a multicenter study (JOSL CT study)

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2018
Background In patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) in the cervical spine, it is well known that the thoracic ossified lesions often coexist with the cervical lesions and can cause severe myelopathy.
