Comparison of Fixation of Spinal Fractures

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1980
Mechanical failure was induced in cadaver spines by applying flexion, extension, and lateral bending loads with continuous recordings of moment and rotation. Each spine was then stabilized with Harrington distraction rods, compression rods, and titanium mesh in sequence, and tested in a similar manner.

Computed Tomography of Spinal Fractures

Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, 1979
Computed tomography (CT) has aided significantly in the diagnosis and management of spinal fractures. The examination is easy, relatively quick, and avoids potentially harmful manipulation. The diagnostic advantages of CT include precise anatomic delineation and indication of extent of fractures, assessment of spinal stenosis, and demonstration of ...

Association of Calcaneal and Spinal Fractures

The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery, 2014
Calcaneus fractures are common injuries that often lead to chronic pain and long-term disability. Appropriate initial management of calcaneal fractures involves assessment for concomitant trauma (polytrauma), and the vertebral column, in particular, the lumbar spine, is known to be especially vulnerable to simultaneous injury when the os calcis has ...

[Spinal fractures].

Zeitschrift fur Gerontologie und Geriatrie, 2016
Osteoporotic spinal fractures are typical age-related fragility fractures. Their impact on the quality of life is often underestimated; therefore, anti-osteoporotic drug treatment according to the current guidelines is essential. Occult vertebral fractures may be difficult to detect and a differentiation between fresh and old fractures is often only ...

[Fractures in spinal muscular atrophy].

Revista de neurologia, 2013
To determine the frequency of fractures in patients with spinal muscular atrophy, their mechanism of production, age at appearance and functional repercussions.Sixty-five patients with spinal muscular atrophy were studied. Cases of fractures diagnosed by means of X-rays were collected and the following parameters were analysed: type of spinal muscular ...

Management of Spinal Fractures

2016
Vertebral column fractures in the polytraumatized patient represent a heterogeneous group of injuries that vary in both severity and complexity. The timely identification and treatment of patient with these injuries is of the utmost importance as a missed or delayed diagnosis may lead to neurologic deterioration that is often irreversible. The specific

Unstable Spinal Fractures

Abstract Traumatic spinal injuries are caused by vehicle collisions, falls, and other trauma. A systematic assessment, including patient history, radiographs, and computed tomographic (CT) imaging of the spine can help identify spinal fractures and instability.
