- W2740172367 abstract "Ossification of the ligamentum flavum (OLF) may result in thoracic myelopathy (TM) because of the spinal canal narrowing. The aim of this study was to investigate clinical outcomes of symptomatic thoracic OLF treated using posterior decompressive laminectomy. We made a retrospective review of patients who underwent posterior decompressive laminectomy from 2007 through 2016 for symptomatic TM caused by OLF. Thirty-three patients who had surgery for TM caused by OLF that was diagnosed based on clinical, radiologic, and pathologic evaluations. All patients had undergone decompressive laminectomy and excision of the OLF. The clinical course was evaluated according to modified JOA scores. Magnetic resonance imaging was used to determine the number of vertebral segments demonstrating OLF, the level of thoracic cord involvement, and spine lesions coexisting with OLF. Results showed the neurological status improved at follow up (70.82±32.22months) from a preoperative mean Japanese Orthopaedic Association score of 7.03±1.29 points to 9.52±0.83 points at the last follow up (p<0.01). Recovery outcomes were excellent in 8 patients, good in 22 patients, fair in 2 patients and poor in 1 patient. Surgical complications, which resolved after appropriate and prompt treatment, including cerebrospinal fluid leakage in 4 patient, immediate postoperative neurologic deterioration in 2 patient, and wound infection in 4 patient. Our findings suggest that posterior decompressive laminectomy with or without instrumented fusion is an effective treatment for symptomatic thoracic OLF, which provides satisfactory clinical improvement." @default.
