A Patient With Two Re-surgeries for Delayed Myelopathy Due to Progression of Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligaments After Cervical Laminoplasty

Abstract

We reported a patient with OPLL who had undergone resurgery twice because of myelopathy due to the progression of ossification. It was important to establish a sufficiently longitudinal and transverse decompression, taking the risk of the unexpected progression of ossification into consideration.
