Ventral osteophytosis is the development of bony outgrowths on the front aspect of a vertebra (or bone) in the spine. These osteophytes are typically seen in conditions like degenerative disc disease or osteoarthritis, where they may contribute to pain and stiffness in the affected area. Treatment may involve medications, physical therapy, or in severe cases, surgery.
