Laminar avulsion in a cervical vertebra.

C V Cimmino, D W Scott

    AJR. American Journal of Roentgenology
    |July 1, 1977
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This study describes a rare cervical vertebra lamina avulsion fracture, likely from ligamentum flavum tear. Subtle radiographic signs require awareness for accurate diagnosis and understanding its occurrence.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedics
    • Radiology
    • Anatomy

    Background:

    • Avulsion fractures of the cervical spine are uncommon.
    • Ligamentum flavum tears can cause unusual fracture patterns.
    • Radiographic detection of subtle cervical fractures can be challenging.

    Observation:

    • An unusual avulsion fracture of the cervical vertebral lamina was identified.
    • Radiographic features of this fracture are often subtle and difficult to detect.
    • Simulation on a dried skeleton aided in understanding the fracture's appearance and mechanism.

    Findings:

    • The fracture is likely caused by the tearing of the ligamentum flavum.
    • Standard radiographic projections may show subtle signs.
    • The anteroposterior view can lead to delayed recognition of the injury.

    Implications:

    • Increased awareness of this specific fracture type is crucial for clinicians.
    • Specialized imaging techniques may be needed for detection.
    • Further studies are required to determine the true incidence of this cervical spine injury.
