[The diagnosis of so-called whiplash injury of the cervical vertebrae. A case report].
The acceleration injury of the cervical spine (so-called whip-lash injury) is a common traumatic mechanism in traffic accident. Severe damages are possible. Scepticism is necessary, if several hours or days are symptom-free. Radiological results which seem to prove an injury should be controlled. Severe injuries are in consideration of the symptom-free course incredible. This is demonstrated with a description of a case.
