L1 burst fracture with associated vertebral angioma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Vertebral angioma is a common bone tumor. We report a case of L1 vertebral angioma revealed by type A3.2 traumatic pathological fracture of the same vertebra. Management comprised emergency percutaneous osteosynthesis and, after stabilization of the multiple trauma, arterial embolization and percutaneous kyphoplasty.

Posterior Vertebral Injury; Is This a Burst Fracture or a Flexion-Distraction Injury?
In thoracolumbar spinal fractures with posterior column injury for applying proper management, it is important to distinguish a flexion-distraction injury (FDI) from a three column burst fracture (BF) as in clinical examination, both may have a similar significant tenderness on direct spinal palpation. Careful attention to the comprehensive clinical examination and detailed imaging features are...
متن کاملInvestigation of thoracolumbar T12-L1 burst fracture mechanism using finite element method.
A finite element model of the T12-L1 motion segment was subjected to dynamic vertical impact to investigate vertebral burst fracture mechanism at the thoracolumbar junction. A rigid ball was directed vertically towards a rigid plate fixed on top of the T12 vertebral body to simulate the axial impact. The results show that upon impact, the T12 vertebra exhibited a vibratory motion. At its maximu...
متن کاملAn Unusual Case of a Large Hematorrachis Associated with Multi-Level Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fractures; a Case Report
Spinal epidural haemorrhage may present as back pain associated with radicular symptoms and can be a catastrophic clinical scenario with progression to paraplegia or even sudden death. Being a rare entity, it needs a high index ofclinical suspicion to diagnose it. Fractures have been documented as a cause of hematorrachis but such hematomas only extend to one or two vertebral segments. Large ep...
متن کاملSeizure-induced lumbar burst fracture associated with conus medullaris-cauda equina compression.
A 36-year-old male developed a burst fracture of the L1 vertebra following a seizure. The patient experienced conus-cauda equina compression resulting in urinary retention and patchy sensory loss. An MRI of the spine revealed short tau inversion recovery (STIR) hyperintensity at L1 with 70% loss of vertebral body height, 8-mm posterior bony retropulsion into the spinal canal and T2-weighted hyp...
متن کاملBiomechanical Analysis of Pedicle Screw Fixation for Thoracolumbar Burst Fractures.
Treatment of unstable thoracolumbar burst fractures remains controversial. Long-segment pedicle screw constructs may be stiffer and impart greater forces on adjacent segments compared with short-segment constructs, which may affect clinical performance and long-term out come. The purpose of this study was to biomechanically evaluate long-segment posterior pedicle screw fixation (LSPF) vs short-...
