Abstract

Injuries to the spine can range from relatively mild ligament and muscle strains, to fractures, dislocations, or subluxation of the vertebrae with subsequent risk of damage to the spinal cord. Fractures and dislocations of the vertebrae can occur at all levels in the spine and in all parts of a vertebra. Spinal fractures are extremely rare in children and far less common than in adult patients. Most studies on paediatric spinal injuries show a high incidence of cervical spine injury (56–100%), followed by thoracolumbar injury (1–34%). This chapter describes the circumstances under which spinal injuries occur before, during and after birth with emphasis on the differentiation between accidental and non-accidental trauma.
