The use of modern methods of surgical stabilization in traumatic damages of the spine

Abstract

The results of treatment of 59 patients with spine trauma are investigated. For diagnostics we used not only X‑Rays but CT and MRT. Recording of traumas was conducted according to classification by Magerl et al. (1994). The method of a choice at the inferior cervical spine trauma was anterior access with the spondilodesis by the auto‑bone and fixing by the mono‑cortical plates. At chest and lumbar spine fractures the transpedicular fixing was used. Splintered chest spine fractures needed the decompression of the channel with the anterior spondilodesis. The necessity of active surgical treatment with use of modern systems of stabilization is suggested at fractures of spinal column.
