@sciencefunn: 57-year-old man presents to Emergency Room after ... motor vehicle accident, reporting severe neck pain and difficulty moving his head and neck. X-rays and CT of the cervical spine demonstrated a COMPLETE dislocation at the C2-C3 level. CT angiography revealed disruption of both vertebral arteries; however, blood flow was evident in the basilar artery. A stabilization and fusion was performed and the patient was discharged just 24 days after admission and his neurological status was essentially unchanged!! Mind blowing case, what do you think?! This patient survived UNHARMED. Case study by Eftychia Kapsalaki We share fascinating science content. Feel free to join us 👉 @sciencefunn for more. #biology #hospital #injury #accident #doctor
