Bony Fusion in a Chronic Cervical Bilateral Facet Dislocation
BACKGROUND Cervical facet dislocation injuries typically present shortly after occurrence due to the pain and neurologic deficit that can be associated with this injury. Bilateral dislocations of the facet joint require prompt evaluation, reduction, and surgical intervention. Rare case reports present bilateral dislocations presenting in a delayed fashion. CASE REPORT We report the case of a ...
متن کاملBilateral Cervical Spine Facet Fracture-Dislocation
An intoxicated 29-year-old male presented to the emergency department after diving into a pool with reported loss of consciousness and complaining of neck pain. On arrival the Glasgow Coma Scale was 15 and vital signs were unremarkable. Physical exam was significant for focal C6 tenderness without stepoff deformity, decreased grip strength, biceps hyperreflexia and absent triceps reflexes bilat...
متن کاملBilateral cervical facet dislocation without neurological injury.
sent significant high-energy trauma to the cervical spine. Neurological morbidity is common, occurring in up to 85% to 90% of cases, and usually is severe among patients with bilateral facet injury.1 Treatment of these injuries is directed at emergent reduction and stabilization of the spine to prevent worsening of any preexisting neurological deficits. Rupture of the posterior longitudinal lig...
متن کاملProgressive paralysis after bilateral facet dislocation of the cervical spine.
We report 13 patients with missed bilateral facet dislocation of the lower cervical spine who subsequently developed severe spinal-cord involvement. There were more women and the patients were older than in most groups with spinal injury. The commonest cause was a fall, and paralysis appeared from six to 48 hours after injury in most patients. Ten patients made some recovery after late reductio...
متن کاملMechanism of cervical spinal cord injury during bilateral facet dislocation.
STUDY DESIGN An in vitro biomechanical study. OBJECTIVES The objectives were to: quantify dynamic canal pinch diameter (CPD) narrowing during simulated bilateral facet dislocation of a cervical functional spinal unit model with muscle force replication, determine if peak dynamic CPD narrowing exceeded that observed post-trauma, and evaluate dynamic cord compression. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DA...
