ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament
Ossification or calcification of the posterior longitudinal ligament of the spinal column. The main symptoms arise from myelopathy of various degrees of severity, usually spinal cord compression caused by stenosis of the spinal canal. It is very common in the Japanese but relatively less common in caucasians. It is frequently, but not exclusively, located at the level of the cervical spine. It is often associated with anterior ankylosing hyperostosis.


Fever, Wolhynia (health)


Also known as trench fever, a disease borne by body lice that was first recognized in the trenches of World War I, when it is estimated to have affected more than a million people in Russia and on the fronts in Europe.
