Abstract

We present a case of fracture-dislocation of the lower cervical spine with slight neurologic complications. The case was a 66-year-old male who fell from a high place. Radiographic examination revealed fracture-dislocation of C7, fracture of the lamina of C6, and fracture of the body of Th1. Due to bilateral pedicle fracture of C7, the spinal canal was maintained and there were slight neurologic complications. The patient was operatively treated with posterior spinal fusion and showed good course at follow-up one year later.
