Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 29659
  • Study ID: 30185
  • Image ID: 7371162
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Trauma
  • Findings: There are acute fractures involving the bilateral pedicles of C2 as follows: There is a non-displaced fracture through the right transverse process of C7. No gross impingement of either the C2 or C7 transverse foramina. There are additional small avulsion fractures between the dens and anterior arch of C1 on the left (best visualized on axial images). The donor site likely originates from C1 and is secondary to a transverse ligament injury. The den is subluxed approximately 6 mm posteriorly, causing impression upon the cord. This is likely secondary to the transverse ligamentous injury/avulsion. Endotracheal tube is noted.
