In this series, 15 patients with ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament underwent anterior decompression to relieve moderate or severe myelopathy, which in 11 included urinary disturbance. The operation consisted of partial resection of the vertebrae, release of the ossified plaque from the surrounding tissue and the insertion of an iliac bone graft. The extent of ossification was confirmed by computerised tomography before and after operation. The plaque was completely detached and moved forward in half of the patients, but only partially moved in the remainder. Symptoms improved considerably. Urinary disturbance disappeared in all patients, but sensory disturbance was left in most. Two patients had prolonged symptoms which were not relieved despite the complete release of the ossified defect.
