  • Title: Operative treatment of spine fractures in children.
    Author: Crawford AH.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1990 Apr; 21(2):325-39. PubMed ID: 2183133.
    Abstract:
    Spinal column fractures in children are unusual. This article presents concise methods of evaluation and management of these injuries with regard to their alignment, stability, and possible spinal canal compromise. The role of radiographic imaging is defined and illustrated by example. The author recommends the techniques outlined in this chapter for stabilization of those spinal column injuries in children when surgery is thought to be indicated.
