متن کاملCervical myelopathy, ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament, and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis: problems in investigation.
This report describes a patient presenting with a spastic quadriplegia who was found to have both diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) and ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) in the cervical spine. There was a dramatic worsening of his symptoms during a myelogram examination of the neck. It is suggested that computed tomographic imaging of the neck is the prefe...

متن کاملDysphasia Caused By Cervical Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis: A Case Report
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a systemic enthesopathy with involvement of ossification of anterior longitudinal ligament (OALL). Although DISH is usually associated with benign nature, cervical large OALL should be considered as a consideration in differential diagnosis of dysphasia. A 73 yearold-man presented with dysphasia and his radiographs showed massive OALL at C4/5. ...
متن کاملDiffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis: Forestier's disease.
Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) or Forestier's disease is characterized by calcification and ossification of soft tissue entheses of ligaments and tendons. DISH is believed to be a variant of osteoarthritis (OA) without the degenerative intervertebral disc and joint degenerative qualities seen in classic OA. The likely pathoetiologic causes of DISH are presented.
