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

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • 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

    1 year

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.
