Bilateral cervical facet dislocation without neurological injury.
sent significant high-energy trauma to the cervical spine. Neurological morbidity is common, occurring in up to 85% to 90% of cases, and usually is severe among patients with bilateral facet injury.1 Treatment of these injuries is directed at emergent reduction and stabilization of the spine to prevent worsening of any preexisting neurological deficits. Rupture of the posterior longitudinal lig...

متن کاملPosterior Vertebral Injury; Is This a Burst Fracture or a Flexion-Distraction Injury?
In thoracolumbar spinal fractures with posterior column injury for applying proper management, it is important to distinguish a flexion-distraction injury (FDI) from a three column burst fracture (BF) as in clinical examination, both may have a similar significant tenderness on direct spinal palpation. Careful attention to the comprehensive clinical examination and detailed imaging features are...
متن کاملIs radiographic vertebral fracture a risk factor for mortality?
Clinical fractures predict increased mortality risk, but few studies report mortality based on prevalent radiographically defined vertebral fracture. This study examined whether radiographically defined vertebral fracture is a risk factor for mortality in older adults. The 1,580 participants in California (631 men, 949 women) were aged > or =50 years in 1992-1996. Lateral spine radiographs, and...
متن کاملA rare case of spinal injury: bilateral facet dislocation without fracture at the lumbosacral joint
Lumbosacral dislocations are rare disorders; since they were first reported by Watson-Jones [1], only 100 cases have appeared in the literature [2]. A traumatic bilateral lumbosacral dislocation is even rarer, with a mere 10 cases reported [3]. Because of its low incidence and atypical location, the lesion may often go unnoticed on initial clinical assessment [4]. Surgical treatment modalities ...
