Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament: An Update on Its Biology, Epidemiology, and Natural History

23 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

Significant progress has been achieved in basic research during the past decade on the pathogenesis of ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL), a multifactorial disease in which complex genetic and environmental factors interact. A review of the literature was conducted to update recent findings on the biology, epidemiology, natural history, and related diseases of OPLL. Gene analysis studies...
