About this ebook
Patients with spinal cord injuries comprise a major percentage of the total number of trauma patients who suffer with high mortality and long-term morbidity. The majority of these patients are of young age, resulting in a disproportionately high loss of productive years of life both individually and for society [1]. One third of these patients have injuries that involve the cervical spine [1]. The management of spinal cord injury remains controversial [2-5] as does the optimal timing of surgical intervention [3]. Recent laboratory and clinical trials indicate that early surgical intervention may be associated with improved results [5-11] though previous studies have reported an increased risk of neurological deterioration with early surgical intervention
