摘要
Experience in managing 26 cases of hangmen''s fracture was reviewed. The basic mechanism of injury was hyperextension of the upper cervical spine. Radiographic studies revealed a spectrum of injury beginning with the classical hangmen''s fracture and progressing to the simple C-2 laminar-pedicle fracture. Appreciation of the fracture instability will dictate the method and duration of fracture treatment. Management by a closed, nonoperative means resulted in solid union of the bone in all fully treated cases, with a minimum of morbidity.
