Introduction
• Traumatic spondyloptosis of cervical spine is rare
• Allen’s classification • Compressive Extension Stage 5 (CES5)• Distractive Flexion Stage 4 (DFS4)
• Retrospective study of cervical spondyloptosis• 7 cases (1 female)• Age: 24 to 64 years
• Neurological status• No deficits 1 case• Incomplete spinal cord injury 6 cases
