Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Trauma to the thoracolumbar spine is responsible for potentially serious lesions, most often involving the functional prognosis in the short, medium and long term, and rare The frequency of these traumas is explained by falls from high places, especially during work accidents or suicide attempts, but also by the perpetual increase in accidents on public roads ly the vital prognosis

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Trauma to the thoracolumbar spine is responsible for potentially serious lesions, most often involving the functional prognosis in the short, medium and long term, and rarely the vital prognosis .

The thoracolumbar spine has an extended transition zone between the tenth thoracic vertebra (T10) and the second lumbar vertebra (L2): the thoracolumbar hinge which, given its particular anatomical situation between a poorly mobile thoracic segment and a dynamic lumbar segment, is the predilection for occurrence of fractures and dislocations .

The frequency of these traumas is explained by falls from high places, especially during work accidents or suicide attempts, but also by the perpetual increase in accidents on public roads.

The analysis of the lesion mechanism and its consequences depends on the understanding of the classification of these lesions which are essential for therapeutic conduct .

Surgical treatment constitutes a key element in the management strategy for these fractures

80 cases of thoracolumbar spine fractures

Osteosynthesis

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Some patients had osteosynthesis using a long construct, others had osteosynthesis using a short construct. Short constructs designated constructs only taking one level above and one level below the injury level (the fractured vertebra was not always included in the construct). The montages taking more than one level above or below the lesion were considered to be a long montage. Osteosynthesis is carried out using Cotrel Dubousset type rods and screws.
