A 6-year-old girl presented with a one-week history of neck pain after a trampoline accident. Cervical radiographs interpreted as pseudosubluxation of C2 on C3. CT demonstrated the reversal of lordosis with anterolisthesis of C2-C3 and C3-C4. Ten weeks after two months of halo traction, radiographs demonstrated anatomic alignment and maintained disk heights. This case highlights the similarities of pseudosubluxation and true injury, emphasizing the need for high index of suspicion in this population and a successful treatment of subluxation using a halo construct.
一位 6 岁女孩因蹦床事故出现颈部疼痛一周,颈椎 X 线片提示 C2 在 C3 上假性半脱位。CT 显示 C2-C3 和 C3-C4 前滑脱伴脊柱前凸消失。头环牵引两个月后 10 周,X 线片显示解剖对线良好且椎间盘高度维持。本病例强调了假性半脱位和真性损伤的相似性,提示对此类人群应保持高度警惕,使用头环固定治疗半脱位可获得成功。
