Résumé

Traumatic spondyloptosis (TS) with complete spinal cord transection and unrepairable durotomy is particularly rare and can lead to a difficult-to-manage cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak. We performed a systematic review of the literature on TS and discuss the management strategies and outcomes of TS with cord transection and significant dural tear. We also report a novel case of a 26-year-old female who presented with thoracic TS with complete spinal cord transection and unrepairable durotomy with high-flow CSF leak. Of 93 articles that resulted in the search query, 13 described cases of TS with complete cord transection. The approach to dural repair was only described in 8 ( Suture ligation of the thecal sac in the setting of traumatic complete spinal cord transection with significant dural disruption has been described in the international literature and is a safe and successful technique to prevent complications associated with persisting high-flow CSF leakage. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of thecal sac ligation of the proximal end of the defect from the United States.

Background UNASSIGNED
Traumatic spondyloptosis (TS) with complete spinal cord transection and unrepairable durotomy is particularly rare and can lead to a difficult-to-manage cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak.
Methods UNASSIGNED
We performed a systematic review of the literature on TS and discuss the management strategies and outcomes of TS with cord transection and significant dural tear. We also report a novel case of a 26-year-old female who presented with thoracic TS with complete spinal cord transection and unrepairable durotomy with high-flow CSF leak.
Results UNASSIGNED
Of 93 articles that resulted in the search query, 13 described cases of TS with complete cord transection. The approach to dural repair was only described in 8 (
Conclusion UNASSIGNED
Suture ligation of the thecal sac in the setting of traumatic complete spinal cord transection with significant dural disruption has been described in the international literature and is a safe and successful technique to prevent complications associated with persisting high-flow CSF leakage. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of thecal sac ligation of the proximal end of the defect from the United States.
