Abstract

Spinal cord injuries are the most devastating of all trauma-related injuries. Penetrating cervical spinal cord injuries are seen rarely. Due to the damage to neural structures, these injuries are associated with significant morbidity. The majority of penetrating injuries are caused by gunshot wounds. Stabbing injuries caused by knives, screwdrivers, glass fragments and nails are much less common. The primary concern in managing penetrating neck injuries is control of bleeding and airway management. In this case report we described an unusual case of accidental nail injury occuring in a man who sustained a penetrating neck injury with a nail lodged between the os occipitale and the first cervical vertebra which caused incomplete spinal injury.

Özet

Spinal kord yaralanmaları tüm travma ilişkili yaralanmaların en yıkıcı olanları arasında yer almaktadır. Delici servikal spinal kord yaralanmaları ise daha nadir görülmektedir. Nöral yapıların hasarına bağlı olarak bu tip yaralanmalar belirgin morbidite gösterirler. Delici yaralanmaların çoğunluğu ateşli silahlar ile olmaktadır. Bıçak, tornavida, cam parçaları ve çivilerle olan delici yaralanmalar ise daha az sıklıkla görülmektedir. Delici yaralanmaların yönetiminde ilk dikkat edilecek olan havayolunun açıklığının sağlanması ve kanama kontrolüdür. Biz bu olgu sunumunda alışılmamış bir kaza sonucu gerçekleşmiş birinci servikal vertebra ile oksipital kemik arasına penetre olan ve inkomplet spinal hasara neden olan delici yaralanma şekline bağlı bir olguyu rapor etmek istedik.
