Abstract :© 2005 DEÜTIP FAKÜLTESİ DERGİSİ CİLT 19, SAYI 1, (NİSAN) 2005: Srage age was 34.6. 57% was male, 43% was female. Spinal canal obliteration per-centwas measured for each patient. 64.3% of the patients had neurological deficit. Spinalcanal obliteration was classified neurologically as Frankel A, B, C, D, E and the ratioswere as follows in the same order 66%, 51%, 37%, 21%and 27%. The spinal canalnarrowing and neurological deficit severity was correlated well. But there wasn’t sucha correlation at the late stage. Also the level of trauma affected the neurologicaldeficit severity. Conclusion: In thoracolomber vertebra fractures neurological deficit is primerallycorrelated with the severity of trauma at first. The spinal narrowing and the level oftrauma verrifies the severity of neurological deficit. CT examination is a good guidefor planning surgery, finding out the spinal narrowing ratio and detecting thepostoperative complications
