Neglected spinal injuries secondary to overlooked diagnosis may result in serious medical and medicolegal problems. These are not uncommon but are reported infrequently in the medical literature. I studied the incidence, causes, and consequences of neglected spinal injuries and recommendations for prevention and treatment by reviewing the literature ...

Pediatric spinal cord injury remains a relatively rare condition relative to its prevalence in the adult population. However, up to 5% of spinal cord injuries occur in children. In addition, age-related biomechanical and behavioral distinctions often make the detection and treatment of spine injuries in children much more challenging than in adults (1).

Injury, 1990
We reviewed 47 children with spinal injuries. Three distinct patterns of injury were observed: subluxations and dislocations without a fracture (type 1), spinal cord injury without radiographic abnormality (type 2), and spinal fractures which may be associated with subluxation or dislocation (type 3).

The commonest mechanisms of injury in the cervical region are automobile accidents, in which there is rapid deceleration with forced flexion of the head; falls on the head, such as diving into too shallow water; whiplash injuries, and direct blows.

Traumatic spinal injury (TSI) is an uncommon source of morbidity and mortality in children. The aim of this study was to describe childhood TSI in a single level 1 urban pediatric trauma center.The authors retrospectively analyzed all children younger than 14 years with TSI, treated at a level I pediatric trauma center between 1991 and 2002 (n = 406, 4%

Central Nervous System Trauma, 1984
Information about the neuropathology of spinal cord injury is derived from the personal study of 341 specimens; 225 of these were traumatic, including 123 with massive injuries. Thirty-one were associated with metastases, 38 were degenerative, and 6 were infectious. Included are 41 normal controls.

CONTINUUM: Lifelong Learning in Neurology, 2011
A spinal cord injury is a devastating, life-changing neurologic event that challenges patients, families, and caregivers. A myriad of neurologic and medical sequelae occur subsequent to the original insult. This article discusses epidemiology, primary and secondary injuries, acute therapy, and neuroprotective agents as well as the exciting areas of ...

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1982
Some spinal cord injuries occur after the patient arrives under medical care; if proper measures are taken, these should be preventable. Many cord injuries are incomplete and with proper treatment have a remarkable capacity for recovery. Centralized rehabilitation programs for patients with spinal injury can guide the victim to the highest functional ...

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1975
Spinal injuries with neurologic sequelae are a rare but catastrophic injury. Many of these injuries might be preventable through proper parent and child education, particularly in water sports and vehicles accidents. A significant number of neurologic injuries are incomplete at the time of injury and proper rescue and initial care may make the ...
