What is Ossified Ligamentum Flavum (OYLL)?

The ligamentum flavum is an elastic tissue that acts as a window to the spinal canal. When it becomes hypertrophied and ossified, it transforms into a rock-like structure that can compress the spinal cord, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness.
