The classification and treatment of thoracolumbar injuries remain controversial. The Spine Trauma Study Group (STSG) has developed a classification system that has prognostic significance and helps guide treatment decisions. It is based on three aspects: morphology of the injury, integrity of the posterior ligamentous complex, and neurological status of the patient. A severity score is used in conjunction with the classification system to help guide treatment decisions. This classification system has been shown to have good inter- and intra-observer reliability.
胸腰段损伤的分类和治疗仍存在争议。脊柱创伤研究小组（STSG）开发了一种具有预后意义并有助于指导治疗决策的分类系统。它基于三个方面：损伤的形态、后韧带复合体的完整性以及患者的神经状态。严重程度评分与分类系统一起用于帮助指导治疗决策。该分类系统已被证明具有良好的观察者间和观察者内可靠性。
