Participation in extreme sports has increased over the last 25 years. Although spinal cord injury may be sustained during extreme and traditional sports alike, the associated risk, location, and severity of injury varies by sport. We describe the case of a 31-year-old man who sustained an L1 burst fracture while landing his inaugural skydiving jump. He developed a mixed pattern of neurologic injury with relative preservation of lower extremity strength and impaired bowel and bladder function. Sports medicine providers should be aware of the risks associated with air sports/extreme sports participation. Such awareness may help prevent injury and enhance the management of associated complications.
在过去25年中，参与极限运动的人数有所增加。尽管在极限运动和传统运动中都可能发生脊髓损伤，但相关的损伤风险、部位和严重程度因运动项目而异。我们描述了一名31岁男性的病例，他在首次跳伞着陆时发生了L1爆裂骨折。他出现了混合性神经损伤模式，下肢力量相对保留，但肠道和膀胱功能受损。运动医学从业者应意识到参与空中运动/极限运动所带来的风险。这种意识可能有助于预防损伤并加强对相关并发症的管理。
