什么叫“ligament’s flavor”?

Intervertebral motion can be isolated to the two vertebral bodies and the three-joint complex, consisting of the disc anteriorly and the two facet joints posteriorly [8].Degenerative change in any segment of the three-joint complex can influence degenerative changes in the other two [9–11]. Degeneration of the disc typically progresses to a subsequent loss of disc height. Lack of sufficient disc height can overwhelm the facet joints during axial loading and leads to inward bowing of the annulus and ligament’s flavor, which will subsequently lead to neural foramina stenosis. The degenerated disc also allows for increased micro-axial rotation during axial loading and, consequently, exacerbating mechanical stress upon the longitudinal ligaments outermost annulus fibrosis [12–14]. Osteoblasts at the attachment sites on the margins of the vertebral bodies and annulus fibrosis are stimulated to form osteophytes. Disc-osteophyte formation further reduces spinal range of motion; posterior osteophytes can also contribute to central spinal stenosis

椎间运动由2个椎体和3个关节复合体完成， 包括前方的椎间盘和后方的2个小关节[8]。3关节复合体任一关节的退行性改变都会使其他2个关节退变[9-11]。椎间盘退变通常进展为椎间盘高度的降低。当缺乏足够的椎间盘高度时，轴向负荷时小关节负荷过重并导致纤维环和黄韧带向内弯曲，进而造成神经孔狭窄。退变的椎间盘还可能导致轴向负荷期间增加微轴向旋转，从而加剧最外层纤维环上纵向韧带的机械应力[12–14]。椎体边缘附着部位的成骨细胞和纤维环受刺激形成骨赘。椎间盘-骨赘的形成进一步降低了脊柱的活动范围，后部骨赘也可导致中央性椎管狭窄。

什么叫“ligament’s flavor”，是不是“Ligamentum flavum”误写
