مطالعه کوهورت از استخوان سازی سرویکس رباط طولی خلفی در جمعیت کره ای: جمعیت شناسی شیوع، درمان جراحی و ناتوانی

In this cohort study, the prevalence of cervical OPLL was 190 per 100,000 people. Male patients received more surgery, and disability rate of male was higher than female patients. Although surgical treatment is covered by medical insurance in Korea, socioeconomic factors such as income level and residential area influence the treatment plans in females. These findings can help in the understanding of disease progression and can inform surgical treatment plans to reduce disability.
