No symptoms of fracture and dislocation?

summary

If you have a certain knowledge of the lumbar spine, you know that it is a very fragile part, because it is composed of segments of the lumbar spine, so there is a layer of cartilage on the surface, so it is easy to cause lumbar fracture dislocation if you are not careful. No symptoms of fracture and dislocation? Let's talk about it

No symptoms of fracture and dislocation?

Acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture and dislocation is mostly incomplete spinal cord injury, and mostly moderate or mild injury. There may be a short period of spinal cord shock in the early stage after injury, after which different degrees of limb movement and sensory function can be found.

In most cases of this kind of injury, neurological function will recover in varying degrees after early bed rest, dehydration and adrenocortical hormone treatment. However, it often stagnates when it recovers to a certain degree, and in most cases, the severity of the disease is repeated within a few months to a few years, resulting in the aggravation of spinal cord dysfunction.

In most cases, X-ray films showed intervertebral joint degeneration, with varying degrees of bone hyperplasia or degenerative segmental instability. Myelography showed obstruction in the cervical segment. Some cases examined by CTM and MRI had cervical spinal cord compression.

matters needing attention

Most of acute cervical spinal cord injury without fracture and dislocation should be treated by early operation once the diagnosis is clear. If cervical MRI shows spinal cord compression or obvious segmental instability, which is related to the level of spinal cord injury, early surgery should be performed. Elderly patients with concomitant diseases, weak constitution and high risk of surgery are relative contraindications. It is necessary to weigh the advantages and disadvantages and make a decision after doctor-patient communication. A small number of patients may have the clinical manifestations of spinal cord injury, but there is no spinal cord compression, and no abnormal activity of intervertebral joints related to spinal cord injury, so there is no surgical indication, and conservative treatment should be performed.
