Abstract

Penetrating injuries to the vertebral column and the spinal cord are rare. Cauda equina injury caused by broken glass shards is even rarer than expected. In this study, a case of spinal column injury was reported in a 25-year-old female patient with glass shards stabbed in to her back, after falling back on top of the table made of glass. A piece of stabbed glass shards was extracted and the wound was sutured at another hospital before she presented to our emergency service. At the time of presentation, the patient had 2/5 muscle strength on her right leg and hypoesthesia below the L4 level. After emergency surgical intervention, the sensory deficit and the muscle strength have completely improved, and the patient was discharged after 6 days. In penetrating traumas to the lumbar region, emergency physician must keep possible spinal column injury in mind.

Özet

Spinal kolon ve spinal kordun penetran yaralanmaları enderdir. Cam kırılmasına bağlı cauda equina yaralanması beklenenden daha enderdir. Bu makalede cam masa üzerine düşme sonrası, sırtına cam saplanması nedeniyle spinal kolon yaralanması olan 25 yaşında bir kadın hasta sunulmuştur. Hastanın acil servisimize gelmeden önce başka bir hastanede saplanan cam parçasının bir parçası çıkarılmış ve yarası dikilmişti. Hastanın başvurusu sırasında sağ bacakta 2/5 kas gücü ve L4 seviyesinin altında hipoestezisi mevcuttu. Acil cerrahi müdahale sonrası hastada duyu ve motor defisit tamamen düzelmiş ve hasta operasyondan 6 gün sonra taburcu edilmişti. Lomber bölgeye olan penetran travmalarda, acil tıp hekimi spinal kolon yaralanması olabileceğini akılda bulundurmalıdır.
