Pediatric blunt vertebral artery injury: case report and treatment plan.
Aggressive screening for blunt cerebrovascular injuries in patients with trauma has led to the identification and successful treatment of these injuries. We report the case of an 8-year-old boy who sustained a vertebral artery injury after a motor vehicle collision. Computed tomography angiogram showed an 8-mm thrombosed segment of the vertebral artery. The patient was initially anticoagulated ...
متن کاملFatal case of cervical blunt vascular injury with cervical vertebral fracture: a case report
Blunt cerebrovascular injury (BCVI) is usually caused by neck trauma that predominantly occurs in high-impact injuries. BCVI may occur due to damage to both the vertebral and carotid arteries, and may be fatal in the absence of appropriate treatment and early diagnosis. Here, we describe a case of cerebral infarction caused by a combination of a lower cervical spinal fracture and traumatic inju...
متن کاملScapulothoracic Dissociation: A Rare Variant: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Scapulothoracic dissociation is a rare injury involving separation of scapula from the thorax along with the upper extremity. Majority of the patients have concomitant neurovascular injury and the prognosis is uniformly poor in such cases. We present a case of scapulothoracic dissociation with comminuted fracture of scapula and acromioclavicular joint disruption without neurovascular d...

متن کاملScapulothoracic Dissociation
The scapula is a somewhat mobile structure which, although fixed to the thoracic cage both by muscular and skeletal attachments, can change position with regards to the underlying chest wall [1]. The Scapulothoracic position is maintained by both muscles (serratus, rhomboids etc) and the clavicle which itself attaches laterally to the scapula (acromioclavicular joint) and medially to the chest ...
