The Influence of Cervical Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament on Retro-odontoid Soft Tissue Thickness and Cervical Sagittal Balance
Compared with patients with CSM, patients with OPLL demonstrate greater lower cervical lordosis, T1S, and ROSTT, as well as reduced ROM of C2-C7. The larger ROSTT is potentially attributed to the larger T1S in patients with OPLL.
