The management of spinal fractures

Surgery (Oxford), 2021
Abstract Spinal injuries are common, ranging from minor ligamentous injury or spinous process fracture to fractures of the vertebral body and posterior elements and ligamentous injury, resulting in injury to the spinal cord. Understanding the epidemiology, anatomy, biomechanics and classification of spinal injuries is important.

Non-contiguous Spinal Fractures

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1990
A retrospective review of 817 spinal fracture patients revealed a 6.4% (52/817) incidence of non-contiguous spine fractures. Seventy-three per cent of the non-contiguous injuries were comprised of combinations of injuries in the cervical and thoracic regions or in the thoracic and lumbar regions.

Spinal Fractures in Tetanus

Radiology, 1965
THE AMERICAN radiological literature and standard textbooks make few references to tetanus as a cause of spinal fractures, a condition first described in 1907 (1). The radiologist familiar with this entity may be the first to suspect its presence on a chest film taken during the acute illness when the fractures are usually asymptomatic (2–5).

Spinal Fracture or Luxation

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 2000
Spinal trauma is a common cause of spinal cord dysfunction in dogs and cats. When the spine is injured by exogenous injury, the impact often results in vertebral fracture or luxation. As each injury is unique, treatment guidelines have to be individualized to the animal.

Spinal Fracture/Luxation

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1995
Clinical management of the spinal fracture/luxation patient requires prompt and accurate diagnosis of the extent of injury coupled with intensive medical or surgical intervention. Convalescent patient care is often physically challenging and labor intensive.

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 in adults

Surgery (Oxford), 2009
Abstract Spinal fractures are an important clinical problem. It is widely accepted that patients with very unstable injuries are best treated by early instrumented fusion. It is clear that patients with stable injuries and no significant deformity or neurological defect are best treated conservatively.

Heparin-Induced Spinal Fractures

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979
A 27-year-old woman received heparin sodium for 152 days because of antepartum iliofemoral thrombophlebitis. At the end of this time, spinal osteoporosis and multiple vertebral fractures became clinically evident and were attributed to the prolonged administration of heparin. Previously reported cases of "heparin osteoporosis" were reviewed.

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.

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
