Potential Influence of Sagittal Parameters in the Pathogenesis of Patients With the Thoracic Ossification of the Ligamentum Flavum
Patients with TOLF have a straighter spine. Mechanical stress plays a more significant role in the development of TOLF in patients with caudal lesions below the T10 level. In patients with TOLF not involving the thoracolumbar segment, factors other than mechanical stress, such as endocrine factors, may play a more crucial role in the development of TOLF.
