Abstract:
Ossification of the sacrotuberous ligament is a rare occurrence in soft tissue, with only 15 cases reported in the past few decades. We reported two cases of bilateral ossification in sacrotuberous ligaments and provided a concise review of the literature on this pathology. Clinical data, radiographic outcomes, and diagnostic and treatment details were obtained. This study aimed to summarize this disease\'s characteristics and investigate its pathogenesis through a review of literature from the last thirty years. This condition is often incidentally confirmed in elderly males via imagiological examination or gross anatomy and presents a low morbidity rate. Its pathogenesis may be related to stress concentration, excessive intake of element ions, injury repair, and improper operative technique. The majority of patients may not exhibit any clinical symptoms or signs and typically do not require medical interventions. It may be complicated with pudendal nerve entrapment syndrome. The long-term effects of surgical resection and the most effective treatment approach remain areas for further research.
摘要:
骶结节韧带骨化在软组织中很少发生,在过去的几十年中,只有15例病例报告。我们报告了两例骶结节韧带双侧骨化的病例,并提供了有关该病理学的文献的简要综述。临床数据,射线照相结果,并获得了诊断和治疗细节。本研究通过回顾近30年的文献,总结该病的特点,探讨其发病机制。这种情况通常通过影像学检查或大体解剖学在老年男性中偶然证实,并且发病率低。其发病机制可能与应激集中有关,元素离子的过量摄入,损伤修复,和不当的操作技术。大多数患者可能不会表现出任何临床症状或体征,并且通常不需要医疗干预。可能并发阴部神经卡压综合征。手术切除的长期效果和最有效的治疗方法仍有待进一步研究。
