Title: Traumatic L5-S1 spondylolisthesis. Author: Hodges SD, Shuster J, Asher MA, McClarty SJ. Journal: South Med J; 1999 Mar; 92(3):316-20. PubMed ID: 10094275. Abstract: We report a case of traumatic spondylolisthesis in a 31-year-old man struck by a steel I-beam. Although most reported traumatic spondylolisthesis cases are from low-energy trauma, this was a high-energy trauma case. The initial examination revealed no signs of cauda equina syndrome, and the patient's spinal injury was primarily capsuloligamentous. We present this rare case, with a review of pertinent literature and treatment mechanisms for traumatic spondylolisthesis.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
