Management of delayed posttraumatic cervical kyphosis

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2016
We describe three patients with misdiagnosed unstable fractures of the cervical spine, who were treated conservatively and developed kyphotic deformity, myelopathy, and radiculopathy. All three patients were then managed with closed reductions by crown halo traction, followed by instrumented fusions.
