A 62-year-old man demonstrated symptoms, signs, and radiographic evidence of lumbar spinal stenosis and intraoperative pathologic findings of tophaceous deposition in the ligamentum flavum. Although there have been reports of cervical calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition (CPPD) with neurologic compression, this report appears to be the first case of lumbar spinal stenosis secondary to CPPD. Cervical calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate crystal deposition should be added to the differential diagnosis of spinal stenosis.
一名62岁男性表现出腰椎管狭窄的症状、体征及影像学证据，术中病理发现黄韧带内有痛风石沉积。尽管已有颈椎焦磷酸钙二水合物晶体沉积（CPPD）伴神经受压的报道，但本报告似乎是首例继发于CPPD的腰椎管狭窄病例。颈椎焦磷酸钙二水合物晶体沉积应纳入椎管狭窄的鉴别诊断。
