A retrospective review of 152 cases of cervical spine injury suffered in water sport-related accidents is presented. Water sport accidents were the second most common cause of traumatic quadriplegia among patients treated on the Spinal Injury Service at Rancho Los Amigos Hospital. The mechanics of injury in 80% of the cases involved flexion and/or axial loading forces. A fracture of the body of C5 was seen in two thirds of the cases. The ratio of complete to incomplete cord lesions was approximately 1:1, with anterior cord syndrome being the most commonly observed. Various risk factors are identified.
本文对152例与水上运动相关事故导致的颈椎损伤病例进行了回顾性研究。在兰乔·洛斯阿米戈斯医院脊柱损伤科接受治疗的患者中，水上运动事故是创伤性四肢瘫痪的第二大常见原因。80%的病例损伤机制涉及屈曲和/或轴向负荷力。三分之二的病例可见C5椎体骨折。完全性与不完全性脊髓损伤的比例约为1:1，其中脊髓前综合征最为常见。还确定了各种风险因素。
