Ligamentum flavum degenerative laxity is a progressive weakening and loss of elasticity in the ligamentum flavum, the yellow ligament that runs along the back of the spinal canal. Over time, ...
Ligamentum flavum tumor infiltration occurs when abnormal growths—either primary tumors or cancer spread (metastases)—invade the ligamenta flava of the spine. The ligamenta flava are strong, elastic ...
Ligamentum flavum post-surgical scarring is the build-up of fibrous tissue around the ligamentum flavum after spinal surgery. During healing, excess scar tissue (epidural fibrosis) can form between ...
A ligamentum flavum cyst is a fluid-filled sac that develops within or next to the ligamentum flavum—a tough, elastic band of tissue connecting the vertebrae in your spine. These cysts can press on ...
