Background: Thoracolumbar spinal fractures include a range of injuries of various severities from simple apophyseal fractures to neurological injury and complex fractures associated with vertebral dislocation. The treatment of thoracolumbar fractures is challenging, especially due to the difficulty of evaluating the posterior ligamentous complex (PLC). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic value of computed tomography (CT) scan in predicting PLC injuries in the patients with thoracolumbar spinal fractures referring to the referral center of spinal trauma in the east north of Iran in 2016.

The clinical outcomes after this procedure are as good as or slightly poorer than those produced by primary discectomy. In this study, the clinical outcomes of patients treated with microsurgical discectomy for RLDH were analyzed.

- Spinal cord injury (SCI) can lead to varying degrees of spontaneous recovery, and this study explores the role of gender in recovery rates using Wistar Rats.
- Researchers created spinal cord lesions in the rats and used the LSS scoring system to evaluate locomotion and compare recovery between male and female rats.
- The findings indicated no significant difference in recovery rates based on sex, suggesting that being female does not predict better recovery after SCI, but further studies are needed for confirmation.
Aim: This study was conducted to evaluate the therapeutic effectiveness of surgical approaches in type II odontoid fracture.
Material And Methods: In a retrospective study in Mashhad university, 15 patients with anterior screw fixation technique (ASF) and 31 patients with posterior approaches (PA) were reviewed. Patient demographics, clinical presentation, length of hospital stay, operation time, injury severity score (ISS), Preinjury Charlson comorbidity index, fusion rate and surgical complications were analyzed in these two groups.
