Ossification of the transverse atlantoid ligament (TAL) is rare. A few cases have been reported by Wackenheim and Dietemann and others. Calcification of the TAL has also been seen in calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease. It is important to differentiate this condition from traumatic lesions of the dens axis.
寰枢横韧带骨化(TAL)较为罕见。Wackenheim 和 Dietemann 等人曾报道过少数病例。TAL 的钙化也可见于焦磷酸钙二水化合物沉积病。重要的是要将这种情况与枢椎轴的创伤性损伤区分开来。
