“…We showed that these subjects with DISH have a substantial higher burden of coronary artery disease compared to subjects without DISH, independent of age, gender and race. Although DISH was known to be associated with worse outcome in the setting of trauma, there is now growing evidence that DISH is associated with restrictive respiratory physiology [20] and with these findings is associated with coronary artery disease. This challenges the notion that the incidental finding of DISH on radiography or crosssectional imaging is a benign characteristic or event.…”

“… 1 , 2 If spinal ankylosis develops, clinical symptoms such as back pain, restricted range of motion, reduced vital capacity, dysphagia, and airway obstruction arise. 1 - 6 Vertebral body fracture can be caused by even minimal injury, with the risk of such fracture reported to be 2 to 5 times higher than in patients without ankylosis. 7 - 9 In cases of spinal fracture accompanied by DISH, the spine assumes the form of a long lever arm, resulting in concentration of stress at the fractured site.…”
