## Abstract Because treatment algorithms for spinal injuries depend largely on the clinical assessment of stability after injury, this study both quantified and compared the mechanical stability after three different patterns of injury in the thoracolumbar spine. We created compression fractures, b
As a sequel to preoperative radiological assessment, 32 patients with traumatic paraplegia due to injury at the thoracic or lumbar level were treated by anterolateral decompression. The results were satisfactory in 60% of patients. This paper describes the radiological methods that were employed and
