The influence of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis on bone mineral density measurements of the spine.
OBJECTIVES BMD has been described to be increased in patients with DISH. The contribution of the ossified anterior longitudinal ligament (ALL) on vertebral body BMD is currently unknown. We investigated the influence of DISH on BMD measurements using an experimental DXA scanning protocol. METHODS Ten DISH specimens and 10 matched human cadaveric spines were used. After assessment of the local...
متن کاملThoracic and Lumbar Vertebral Bone Mineral Density Changes in a Natural Occurring Dog Model of Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis
Ankylosing spinal disorders can be associated with alterations in vertebral bone mineral density (BMD). There is however controversy about vertebral BMD in patients wuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). DISH in Boxer dogs has been considered a natural occurring disease model for DISH in people. The purpose of this study was to compare vertebral BMD between Boxers with and without DISH. ...
متن کاملExtraspinal manifestations of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis.
DISH is a condition characterized by calcification and/or ossification of soft tissues, mainly entheses, ligaments and joint capsules. Its prevalence increases with age and, therefore, DISH is a relatively common entity in the elderly. The classical site of involvement is the spinal column with right anterolateral soft tissue ossification being the most characteristic feature. However, DISH is ...
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.
متن کاملDiffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis Involving Cervical and Lumbar Spine Presenting with Dysphagia: A Case Report
Introduction: Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis (DISH) is a very rare cause of dysphagia when it occurs in the cervical spine. It can also affect the lumbar region where it causes deformity. Case Report: In this article, a rare case of Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis involving both the cervical and lumbar spine, presenting with dysphagia and spinal stiffness leading to a stoopin...
