The spinolaminar line is an important anatomical landmark easily visualized on the lateral radiograph of the cervical spine. Any displacement in this line may be an indication of subtle traumatic vertebral damage. This is particularly relevant to the upper cervical spine in which the complex anatomy and frequent absence of associated neurological deficit make diagnosis difficult. Two case histories are presented which emphasize the importance of evaluation of the spinolaminar line on the lateral radiograph after trauma to the head and neck.
棘突椎板线是一个重要的解剖学标志，在颈椎侧位X线片上很容易观察到。这条线的任何移位都可能提示细微的创伤性椎体损伤。这对上颈椎尤为重要，因为其解剖结构复杂且常常没有相关的神经功能缺损，使得诊断困难。本文介绍了两个病例，强调了头颈部外伤后颈椎侧位X线片上评估棘突椎板线的重要性。
