Aortic Impingement in Displaced Traumatic Spine Fracture with Complete Spinal Cord Transection: A Case Report

Aortic impingement associated with traumatic thoracic spinal fractures is a rare and potentially lethal complication that creates management challenges in an already complex clinical problem. Traumatic aortic injury is one of the leading causes of death in blunt trauma. Magerl divided thoracic and l...
