[Fracture-dislocation of the dorsal spine with severe displacement without neurologic impairment: Case presentation and literature review].
A very rare fracture-dislocation of thoracic vertebrae without associated neurological injury is presented. Damage to the spinal cord was avoided because of the nature of the fracture which occurred through the posterior elements and which allowed anterior slipping of the anterior elements and hence widening of the spinal canal.
