| Popis: | Study Design:Review of literature and case series.Objectives:Update and review of current treatment concepts for spine fractures in patients with ankylosing spinal disorders.Methods:Case presentation and description of a diagnostic and therapeutic algorithm for unstable spinal injuries with an underlying ankylosing spinal disorder (ASD) of the cervical and thoracolumbar spine.Results:Nondisplaced fractures can be missed easily using conventional X-rays. Thus, computed tomography (CT) scans are recommended for all trauma patients with ASD. In doubt or presence of any neurologic involvement additional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans should be obtained. Spine precautions should be maintained all times and until definitive treatment (Conclusions:Current concepts, treatment options, and recommendations of the German Orthopedic Trauma Society–Spine Section for spinal fractures in the ankylosed spine have been outlined. |
