RECENT ADVANCES IN FRACTURES OF THE SPINE BY EMAD EL-MEHY, MD PROF. ORTHOP. T.U.
FUNCTIONS • PROTECTION • SUPPORT & POSTURE • SHOCK ABSORPTION • MOVEMENTS
ANATOMY • NORMAL CURVATURES • SPINAL MOTION SEGMENT • REALATION TO SPINAL CORD & ROOTS • SPINAL CANAL
active static dynamic hydrodynamic
SPINAL STABILITY • The ability of the spine under physiological loads to maintain relationships between vertebrae without : • Spinal cord or nerve roots damage or irritation • Deformity • Pain • Abnormal mobility
INCIDENCE • 60% at thoracolumbar junction (T11-L2) • 20% at cervical spine • 20% other parts
AETIOLOGY • Major car accident • Fall from a height • Falling heavy object
Classification • Angulation stress fractures • Displacement (Translation) stress fractures
Angulation stress fx • Around X (transverse) Axis Hyper flexion Hyperextension • Around Y (A-P) Axis Rt lateral wedge Lt lateral wedge • Around Z (vertical) Axis Rt rotation Lt rotation
Displacement (Translation) Stress Fx • Along X (transverse) Axis Rt translation Lt translation • Along Y (A-P) Axis Ant. translation Post. translation • Along Z (vertical) Axis Compr. (Burst) Distraction (Seat belt)
The goals of treatment of spine injuries are (1) to realign the spine, (2) to prevent loss of function of undamaged neurological tissue, (3) to improve neurological recovery, (4) to obtain and maintain spinal stability, (5) to obtain early functional recovery.
