pubmed:abstractText |
The posterior ligamentous complex (PLC) is thought to contribute significantly to the stability of thoracolumbar spine. Obvious translation or dislocation of an interspace clearly denotes injury to the PLC. A recent survey of the Spine Trauma Study Group indicated that plain radiographic findings, if present, are most helpful in determining PLC injury. However, confusion exists when plain radiography shows injury to the anterior spinal column without significant kyphosis or widening of the posterior interspinous space.
