Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature01:16

Vertebral Column: Regions and Curvature

11.3K
The vertebral column or spine is a flexible column that supports the head, neck, and body and  allows for their movements. It also protects the spinal cord.
Regions of the Vertebral Column
In an adult, the spine is subdivided into five regions: the cervical, the thoracic, the lumbar, the sacral, and the coccygeal region. The spine initially develops as a series of 33 vertebrae; after 20 years of age, the nine bones in the sacral region, five sacral, and four coccygeal bones fuse to form...

Flail Chest-II

763
Managing flail chest, a condition characterized by a segment of the chest wall moving independently from the rest of the thoracic cage, requires a comprehensive approach. It includes a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, a diagnostic evaluation to determine the extent of the injury, and the implementation of appropriate medical interventions tailored to the individual's needs.

Area of Science:

  • Neurology
  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Radiology

Background:

  • Spinal arthropathy can occur after neurologic injury.
  • Charcot joint of the spine is a rare condition.

Observation:

  • A case of trauma-induced neurologic injury leading to spinal arthropathy without prior laminectomy.
  • Review of three similar cases in literature, with only one surgical management.

Findings:

  • Charcot arthropathy may occur distal to the neurologic deficit level in trauma patients.
  • Radiographic analysis is crucial for identifying these injuries.

Implications:

  • Early and aggressive surgical stabilization is recommended for spinal arthropathy in trauma patients.
  • This finding expands the understanding of Charcot joint locations in trauma patients.
