Quiz – Spine Case (Answer)

Hello,

Great case!Thank you for sharing.
Just an ancillary comment.

Those who work in a French speaking country also refer to this condition as “ Japanese disease “.

Even if this way of describing is old-fashioned and may seem not elegant, it has the merit of reminding the relatively high prevalence of OPLL in Japanese population. This fact could raise a red flag when our patients are from this geographic area.

Have a great day,
