Abstract

The authors report on three cases of spinal cord injury in 11, 14 and 21-month-old infants, involved in motor vehicle accidents. Neurologic lesions were caused by a forcible flexion of the head over a fixed trunk. Pathomechanics management problems and therapeutic considerations are discussed.
