Osseous Bridges between the Transverse Processes of the Lumbar Spine

Report of Three Cases and Review of The Llterature

WILFRED YOSLOW M.D.1 and MELVIN H. BECKER M.D.1

1 NEW YORK, N. Y.

Three cases of osseous bridging of lumbar transverse processes are presented with twenty-four other cases reviewed from the available literature. The varying patterns of these bridges are described, and a clinical picture is presented. Pathologically, the condition is one of myositis ossificans with a pseudarthrosis between the spans of the bridge. In the opinion of the authors, most, if not all, of the cases are traumatic in origin.
