Thoracic myelopathy secondary to ossified ligamentum flavum.

M F Omojola, E R Cardoso, A J Fox, C G Drake, Q J Durward.   

Abstract

The authors report a case of ossification of the ligamentum flavum at T-10 and T-11 associated with compressive myelopathy. Metrizamide myelography with computerized tomography allowed precise preoperative diagnosis and anatomic localization of the lesion. The patient had satisfactory and prompt improvement after surgical intervention.
