pression and stabilization with cervical locking plate and tricortical bone graft

B

etween 2010 and 2016, 44 patients (range 19-75 years)

with unstable hangman’s fracture underwent anterior

decompression and stabilization with cervical locking plate

and tricortical bone graft in our institution. According to the

Levine – Edwards classification all patients were unstable

type with Type Ia–6(13.6), type II 35(79.5%), Type II (0),

Type III (6.8). The mean period of follow up was 17 months

(range 6 to 48 months). None of the patient has worsening

of neurological deficit postoperatively. Neurological recovery

was observed in all 9 patients. All patients were relieved

from axial pain. All patients showed solid fusion with no

complication related to bone graft and plate .The method in

our study is feasible and safe method in treating Hangman’s

fracture, with the benefit of high primary stability, anatomical

reduction and direct decompression of the spinal cord. To

study the functional outcome in unstable Hangman’s fracture

managed with anterior decompression and stabilization with

cervical locking plate and tricortical bone graft .44 patients

(range 19-75 years) with unstable hangman’s fracture

were included in study. According to the Levine- Edwards

classification all patients were unstable type with Type Ia

-6(13.6), type II 35(79.5), Type III (6.8). The mean period of

follow up was 17 months. None of the patient has worsening
