Abstract:
The case of a soldier with multiple cervical fractures without neurologic deficit sustained after a helicopter crash during Operation Desert Storm is presented. The fractures involved the C2 body and the right facet joint and pedicle of C4. This fracture pattern, in association-with lack of neurologic deficit, is the first such case reported in the literature.
