Brief Summary
The subaxial cervical spine consists of levels C3 through C7 and includes both the bony anatomy as well as the ligamentous anatomy. Injuries to the subaxial cervical spine can be bony, discoligamentous or a combination of both (1). Cervical spine trauma is common resulting from high energy trauma such as falling from height and motor vehicle accident (2). Devastating sequelae of subaxial cervical spine trauma include quadriplegia, functional loss, and permanent disability

Short-Term Outcomes Of Subaxial Cervical Injuries in Assiut University Trauma Center
Neck disability index It is a standard instrument for measuring self-rated disability due to neck pain and is used by both clinicians and researchers. Each of the 10 items scores from 0 to 5. The maximum score is 50. The obtained score can be multiplied by two to produce a percentage score

Interventions
A dedicated sheet will be used to record patients' data including all demographic data, detailed analysis of the mechanism of injury, time of injury, time and details of surgery (if any), neurological status on admission and all radiological findings. All patients will undergo plain X-rays and CT imaging. Patients with suspected discoligamentous injuries and/or neurological deficits will also be assessed by MRI.
Eligibility Criteria
All patients presenting with subaxial cervical spine injuries with and without cervical cord injury between January 2022 and December 2022.
You may qualify if:
- All patients presenting with subaxial cervical spine injuries with and without cervical cord injury between January 2022 and December 2022.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who refuse to participate in the study 2- Patients who are not available for 6 weeks follow up
