Lumbosacral dislocation.

C S Resnik, C E Scheer, R S Adelaar

    Journal of the Canadian Association of Radiologists
    |September 1, 1985

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    A rare lumbosacral junction dislocation can occur without obvious displacement on lateral X-rays. Radiologists must recognize potential severe injury despite normal-appearing lateral views, especially in trauma cases.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Radiology
    • Trauma Care

    Background:

    • Lumbosacral junction dislocations are rare but severe injuries.
    • Diagnosis often relies on radiographic evidence.

    Observation:

    • This case presents a unique lumbosacral dislocation.
    • The lateral radiograph appeared normal, showing no anteroposterior displacement.

    Findings:

    • Despite a normal-appearing lateral radiograph, significant lumbosacral abnormality was present.
    • This challenges conventional diagnostic assumptions for this injury.

    Implications:

    • Radiologists must maintain a high index of suspicion for lumbosacral injury.
    • Further imaging or clinical correlation may be necessary when lateral radiographs are deceptively normal.
