Experimental Mouse Model of Lumbar Ligamentum Flavum Hypertrophy
Lumbar spinal canal stenosis (LSCS) is one of the most common spinal disorders in elderly people, with the number of LSCS patients increasing due to the aging of the population. The ligamentum flavum (LF) is a spinal ligament located in the interior of the vertebral canal, and hypertrophy of the LF, which causes the direct compression of the nerve roots and/or cauda equine, is a major cause of ...
متن کاملOssification and hypertrophy of ligamentum flavum at thoracic spine.
BACKGROUND Hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum is a pathological condition that causes neurological symptom (radiculopathy and / or myelopathy) and usually occurs in the thoracic,2 less frequently in the cervical spine that commonly involves thoracic spine. This study was conducted to analyse the clinical presentation and outcome of surgery of ossified ligamentum flavum at thoracic spine. ME...
متن کاملHypertrophy of Ligamentum Flavum in Lumbar Spine Stenosis Is Associated with Increased miR-155 Level
Hypertrophy of ligamentum flavum (LF) contributes to lumbar spinal stenosis (LSS) and is caused mainly by fibrosis. Recent data indicate that miR-155 plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of different fibrotic diseases. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that miR-155 exerts effects on LF thickness by regulating collagen expression. We found that LF thickness and the expression of collag...
متن کاملOssification of the Ligamentum Flavum
Ossification of the ligamentum flavum is a rare cause of thoracic myelopathy. It develops in East Asians more frequently than in people from other areas. The exact pathophysiology has not been elucidated yet; however, it largely depends on biomechanical alterations, especially changes in the tensile force. Because the spinal cord is compressed from the posterior side, the first and most common ...
متن کاملLigamentum flavum hematoma in the lumbar spine.
A patient who presented with symptoms suggestive of nerve root compression secondary to an extradural mass was found to have a hematoma in the ligamentum flavum. Pathological examination of surgical specimens revealed an old hemorrhage, and hemosiderin deposits around organized granulation tissue within the ligamentum flavum. Vessels within the ligamentum flavum had, presumably, ruptured during...
