Abstract

Abstract. Spinal fracture and dislocation are among the most feared injuries by patients and physicians alike, as the consequences can be devastating, ranging from mild pain and discomfort to severe paralysis and even death. Spinal trauma is commonly found in patients admitted to level-one trauma centers after serious accidents like traffic, falling, and sports accidents.Injuries of the cervical spine account for one third of spinal fractures and half to two thirds of all spinal cord injuries.In the thoracolumbar spine, the most common unstable fracture is the burst fracture. Altogether, burst fractures have been reported to account for about 15% of spinal injuries.Incidence of burst fractures peaked at the thoracolumbar junction and between levels T5 and T8. In 10% of cases,more than one burst fracture was seen, thereof 53% on noncontiguous levels. Main accident mechanisms were falls, traffic, and sports. Neurological deficit was highest in patients with burst fractures of the cervical spine, independent of accident mechanism, and lowest in thoracolumbar junction fractures. Burst fractures occur frequently in high energy traumas and are most commonly associated with falling and traffic accidents.Multiple burst fractures occur in 10% of cases, half thereof on noncontiguous levels.Access to the anterior thoracic spine via the transthoracic approach (via thoracotomy) can be used for decompression and fusion. To perform adequate decompression and stabilization of the thoracic spine, obtaining good exposure is a must. Preservation and protection of the vascular structures in the thoracic cavity is the key to such an exposure. Preoperative workup should include imaging modalities (plain rontgens, MRI/CT scan) to specifically define the area of decompression. If a tumor is being evaluated, CT angiography and embolization are helpful in preoperative planning. Assistance by a thoracic surgeon for exposure is highly recommended.

Abstract

Cervical trauma is a serious condition, that may cause permanent disability or even death. Cervical trauma occurs in 2-7% of blunt trauma patients. In Europe, the incidence of cervical trauma is approximately 9-17/100,000 annually,. The most common mechanisms of injury causing cervival trauma are traffic accidents and falls, which the most commonly injured vertebra is vertebral C2 (axis). Diagnostics of cervical trauma are based on good clinical assessment and prompt radiological imaging. Several patient groups, such as the elderly and patients with traumatic brain injury are highly susceptible to cervical trauma. The diagnostics of cervivcal trauma remain challenging for clinical practitioners and failure to diagnose cervical trauma in acute care may have serious consequences.

Abstract

Abstract: Ventriculoperitoneal (VP) shunt placement is one of the most commonly performed procedures in neurosurgery. One rare complication is the formation of an abdominal pseudocyst, which can cause shunt malfunction.

Abstract

Background: Accidental penetrating brain injury through supraorbital route is an unusual occurrence in emergency practice of civilian cases. At time, it could be potentially life threatening. We report an interesting case of supraorbital penetrating brain injury with an iron stick in a 12-year-old female patient. The stick was removed successfully through supraorbital exploration, without any neurovascular complications. Case Report: A 12-year-old female presented to our emergency department with injury to his right eye. History revealed that she was practicing marching band in her school as the leader. As she thrown the iron stick, she lost balance and that iron stick entered into her right supraorbital. Her Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score, on admission, was 15. There was circumferential laceration on the right supraorbital, flat margins, visible iron stick penetration with diameter 3 cm but no active bleeding was found. Rest of the physical and neurological examination findings were within normal limits. He was resuscitated promptly according to the advanced trauma life support system. Discussion: Intravenous fluids are given and efforts are taken to maintain high blood oxygen levels.Management of patients with transorbital brain injuries and foreign bodies in situ should follow basic surgical principles, including removal of the object under direct vision in order to reduce further brain tissue damage by the foreign bodies catching on bone fragments. Following removal of the foreign body, thorough debridement with removal of all involved skull bone and foreign materials, hematoma evacuation followed by careful hemostasis along the trajectory, and meticulous dural closure to reduce the possibility of CSF fistula are mandatory. A transorbital or transcranial approach can be chosen depending on the location of the fragment. Conclusion: In conclusion, supraorbital penetrating brain injury caused by an iron stick is a rare but fatal event. High index of suspicion toward the presence of foreign bodies and emergent surgical intervention is to be considered in spite of consistent lack of evidence on CT scan. Retrieval should be performed on the operating table under direct vision only after preoperative imaging of neurovascular structures. Keyword: Penetrating brain injury, Iron Stick

Abstract

Background : Accidental penetrating brain injury is relatively uncommon representing about 0.4% of all head injuries. Penetrating brain injury (PBI) were divided into Missile and Non missile penetrating head injuries (NPHIs). Non missile penetrating head injuries (NPHIs) are relatively rare compared with missile injuries. Wooden Penetrating Brain Injury is one of Non missile penetrating head injuries (NPHIs) Case Report : 20-year-old male presented with Decreased of Conciousness. History revealed that he was riding motorcycle and had an crash injury with other motorcycle rider from a head. He fell down and a broken wooden stick entered into his skull. Airway was clear, Breathing was spontan and respiratory rate 26 per minutes, Circulatory finding were warm skin, pulse rate of 118 per minute and blood pressure of 140/80 mm Hg, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score on admission was E3M5V4. Radiology Imaging finding a foreign body in Left Frontal Lobe. Discussion : Wooden Penetrating Brain Injury was Nonmissile penetrating head injuries (NPHIs). The pathophysiology is similar to closed head injuries causing cerebral contusion or intracranial hemorrhage, but there is more chance of infection. Primary survey and stabilization of the patient with regard to the airway, breathing, cervical spine, and circulation including external hemorrhage. Computed tomography (CT) scanning of the head is primary modality . MRI can be a useful neuroradiologic modality if a penetrating object is a wood. Patient was performed Craniectomy Debridement and was treated with triple antibiotic regiment. Conclusion : The management of PBI differs considerably from nonpenetrating brain injury because of the unique mechanism of injury and pathophysiology involved in this type of trauma In this patient surgical treatment was undergoing after 12 h. Patient was treated with triple antibiotic regiment and was discharged on 7th day post operation. The recovery of the patient went uneventfull. Patient gained back his conciousness without any neurological deficit. Key words : Penetrating Brain Injury, Nonmissile, Wooden stick
