Abstract

Traumatic SPINAL CORD INJURY is one of the important causes of disability. In some of vertebral fractures, spinal canal is deformed and compromised. The relationship between the shape of the cervical canal and SPINAL CORD INJURY has been proved but such a correlation for THORACOLUMBAR SPINE has not been documented yet. Thus, 100 consecutive patients with traumatic fracture of THORACOLUMBAR SPINE [50 patients with compromised canal (cases) and 50 patients with intact canal] were evaluated in the light of spinal canal shape (using CT scan), neurological defects (using Frankle classification), mechanism of trauma and level of the spinal fracture of the 100 patients studied, 23 had SPINAL CORD INJURY and most of injuries were at T12-L2-The most common mechanisms of trauma were road traffic accident and fall. The difference in age, sex and mechanism of trauma between the two groups was not statistically significant.No significant difference was found between canal intact group and canal compromised group in NEUROLOGICAL DEFICIT (p=0.09) In traumatic SPINAL CORD INJURY, it seems that dynamic spinal canal encroachment is more important than static canal compromise.
