Abstract
VELASCO CANZIANI, Juan Manuel et al. Luxofractura cervical en niños: revisión bibliográfica y caso clínico. Rev. Asoc. Argent. Ortop. Traumatol. [online]. 2020, vol.85, n.3, pp.270-282. ISSN 1852-7434. http://dx.doi.org/https://doi.org/10.15417/issn.1852-7434.2020.85.3.1007.
Fracture-dislocations are a rare presentation, but their knowledge is critical in terms of diagnosis, treatment, and potential seque-lae. We report a literature review on cervical spine fracture-dislocations in children and a case of a 10-year-old girl who sustained a C3-C4 fracture-dislocation. The patient underwent open reduction and arthrodesis at C3-C4, and a 2-year follow-up.
Keywords : Cervical fracture-dislocations; children; arthrodesis; cervical reduction.
