Abstract
The incidence of multiple noncontiguous spinal injuries (MNSI) in the cervical spine is rare but has catastrophic consequences.The patient in this report was a 34-year-old woman with five-level cervical MNSI.CT and MRI showed that injuries included atlantoaxial instability,burst fracture of C6,dislocation of G6/7,rupture of the intervertebal disc or ligamentous complex,and irreversible cord damage.The mechanism for this case was a combined pattern of hyperflexion,compression,and hyperextension injuries.A review of the literature revealed that this case is the first report in the literature of a vehicle related accident causing five-level noncontiguous injuries of the cervical spine.关键词
