abstract="The clinical presentation of cervical and basilar skull fractures following head impact is often complex, particularly when multiple noncontiguous fractures are present.  The purpose of this paper is to examine catastrophic head-impact injury using a human cadaver impact model to provide biomechanical framework upon which the mechanisms of cervical spine impact injuries occur, and to discuss a framework upon which injury prevention strategies can be developed and refined.<br />",
