ABSTRACT

Objective: To value the prevalence of Forestier-Rotes-Querol disease or diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis, an ossification in the anterior longitudinal ligament and calcifications in other enthesis.
Patients and Method: A review of clinic-radiologic findings in outpatients attended at our Center for five years (from July 2013 to June 2018) bearing of a wide variety of symptoms. Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis diagnosis was set up under Resnick criteria.
Results: There were submitted to whole spine radiographies 819 individuals, detecting diagnostic criteria in 122, with a male/female ratio of 2.69:1 and 60.19 ± 10.51 years old. High dysphagia was the main consulting symptom, although the segment D7-D10 resulted the more involved spinal area. So, the period prevalence reached 14.8%. Two cases improved after removing the new bone in neck.
Conclusion: Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis is a usual, systemic and asymptomatic ankylosing ossification of joints. A few cases need surgery to relieve the calcification processes.
