Abstract

In 1965-1978, 194 patients with cervical spine injuries, caused by diving into water, were treated. In 182 cases, spinal fracture was accompanied by spinal cord injury. This paper presents mechanism of trauma, in connection with observed degree of neurological disturbances as well as further life of this group of patients in relation to the degree of spinal cord damage.
