The surgical strategy for multilevel massive ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligaments

The surgical strategy for multilevel massive ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligaments

PurposeCreating enough decompression, favorable outcome, less complication, and maintain adequate lordosis and stability in the patients with cervical myelopathy due to multilevel massive ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) still poses a challenge for surgeons. The aim of our...
