A retrospective imaging and clinical study. ⋯ A considerable proportion of the patients with traumatic cervical SCI without major bone injury were shown to have various types of soft-tissue damage associated with cervical segmental instability at the early stages of the injury. The severity of paralysis greatly depended on these discoligamentous injuries.

A series study of patients with lower cervical facet dislocation accompanied by traumatic disc herniation treated with anterior decompression and nonstructural bone grafting and posterior fixation. ⋯ Although further study based on injury types as well as long-term follow-up is still needed, anterior decompression and nonstructural bone grafting and posterior fixation provides a promising surgical option for treating cervical facet dislocation with traumatic disc herniation.
