Cervical Spine Trauma

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1990
The conventional radiographic examination remains as the single best initial study in patients with potential cervical spine injury. Computed tomography is the best, most readily available second study. Specific cervical spine injuries are presented as they follow a classification based on mechanism of injury.

Chondroma of the cervical spine

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1988
Chondroma is a benign cartilaginous tumor and rarely seen as a spinal cord tumor. The authors report a case of cervical chondroma with cord compression signs. After the total surgical removal of the lesion neurological recovery was seen, but one year later recurrence occurred with no sarcomatous transformation.

The Cervical Spine [PDF]

open access: possible, 2010
Figure 2.1 illustrates the surface anatomy of the cervical spine (C-spine). The C-spine consists of seven vertebrae (C1–C7) and supports the weight of the head (approximately 14 pounds). The first two vertebrae are called the axis and atlas, respectively, and do not have a disc between them, but are closely bound together by a complex of ligaments. The

MRI of the Cervical Spine

Australasian Radiology, 1986
ABSTRACTMRI provides a non‐invasive method of imaging the cervical spine in multiple planes. The excellent tissue contrast and sensitivity in the detection of desease which it provides make MRI a powerful diagnostic tool in the assessment of both anatomical deformity and tissue pathology.

Kinematics of the Cervical Spine

Neurosurgery, 1978
This has been a review of some of the movements of the cervical spine. Much data remain to be accumulated and certainly much work must be done to evaluate the effect of forces in various directions upon these movements. Perhaps an improved understanding of these movements in association with an understanding of the pathogenesis of disc degeneration ...

The Cervical Spine

1985
The cervical spine is exceptionally mobile for the following reasons. (1) the discal height relative to that of the vertebral body is 1 to 3, as against 1 to 6 in the thoracic spine and 1 to 3 in the lumbar spine161, (2) the smallness of the AP diameter of the vertebral body relative to this height, (3) the sagittal facet

Anatomy of the Cervical Spine

2016
The vertebral column, or spine, consisting of a coordinated series of 33–34 vertebrae separated from each other by intervertebral disks, is divided in five segments or sections: cervical, dorsal, lumbar, sacral and coccygeal [1–7].

The Cervical Spine

2014
Plain radiographs of the cervical spine are the initial imaging modality, where the frontal, lateral, and AP views may be supplemented by additional views (like the “openmouthed” and extension/flexion views) (Fig. 52.1). Screening in spine trauma may begin with plain radiographs as traumatic injuries must be rule out prior to moving the patient for ...

Cervical Spine Injuries

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1986
Drs. Jackson and Lohr review such skeletal injuries as fractures, dislocations and subluxations, cervical disk herniation, degenerative disks, and "stingers." Cervical strains and sprains are also discussed, and evaluation of cervical injuries and immobilization and transportation of the injured player are other topics covered.
