Abstract

Traumatic injuries to the cervical spine or spinal cord are uncommon pathologies in the pediatric population. Unlike adults, children possess unique features such as incomplete ossification of vertebrae, synchondroses, pseudo-subluxation, horizontal alignment of ligaments, and absence of lordosis, which results in greater mobility and flexibility in the pediatric spine. These features are prominent in the cervical spine, which accounts for the most common area of traumatic spinal injuries in children. In this review, we summarize injury patterns, diagnosis, and treatment of traumatic cervical spine injuries in the pediatric population.

小儿颈椎创伤：损伤模式、诊断和治疗》（Pediatric Cervical Spine Trauma: Injury Patterns, Diagnosis, and Treatment）。

颈椎或脊髓的外伤在儿童群体中并不常见。与成人不同，儿童具有一些独特的特征，如椎骨骨化不全、突关节、假性半脱位、韧带水平排列、无前凸等，这些特征导致儿童脊柱具有更大的活动性和灵活性。这些特征在颈椎中尤为突出，而颈椎是儿童脊柱外伤中最常见的部位。在这篇综述中，我们总结了儿科创伤性颈椎损伤的损伤模式、诊断和治疗方法。

期刊介绍： Articles in ''Pediatric Neurosurgery'' strives to publish new information and observations in pediatric neurosurgery and the allied fields of neurology, neuroradiology and neuropathology as they relate to the etiology of neurologic diseases and the operative care of affected patients. In addition to experimental and clinical studies, the journal presents critical reviews which provide the reader with an update on selected topics as well as case histories and reports on advances in methodology and technique. This thought-provoking focus encourages dissemination of information from neurosurgeons and neuroscientists around the world that will be of interest to clinicians and researchers concerned with pediatric, congenital, and developmental diseases of the nervous system.
