A case of myelopathy due to the calcification of the yellow ligament was reported. A 66-year-old Japanese female was admitted complaining of gait disturbance, numbness and clumsiness in both hands. Neurological examination revealed muscle weakness and hypesthesia of both upper extremities and hands. CT scan of the spine demonstrated an oval calcified mass at the C4/5 and multiple calcified nodules at the C5/6 vertebral level, projecting into the spinal canal. MRI demonstrated a low signal mass in both T<SUB>1</SUB> and T<SUB>2</SUB> imaging. After laminectomy of C4, C5, and C6, neurological symptoms almost completely disappeared. If an early diagnosis is obtained and decompressive surgery is performed promptly, good results can be expected.
