6 Common and uncommon neck injuries in the injured worker Matthew Colman, MD Assistant Professor, Spine Surgery and Musculoskeletal Oncology Rush University Medical Center
7 Van Eerd Spine 2011 Incidence and Etiology Neck Pain in Workers is 27-48% 11-14% of workers limited in duties due to neck pain 14% of claimants have multiple episodes
8 Review of Cervical Anatomy
9 Common Problems are Common! Soft tissue injury HNP Fractures
10 Soft Tissue Cervical Sprain / Strain /Whiplash spectrum Myofascial-liagmentous overuse Exacerbation of preexisting degenerative disc disease / cervical stenosis
11 Acute Disc Herniation Just looks different than degenerative stenosis Results in a pain, weakness, numbness of the higher numbered root (C6 at C5/6) ACDF / TDA / Posterior Foraminotomy
12 Fractures Many different varieties depending on the mechanism Separate the benign from the unstable Treatment ranges from collar to major surgery
13 What about the uncommon and difficult to diagnose? Occult or hidden fracture Spinal cord injuries Ligament-only injuries Vascular injuries
14 Occult Fracture 46F s/p MVA at work Struck from behind while operating company vehicle Neck pain immediately, but much worse the following day No arm pain
15
16
17
18 History and Physical Exam Denies pre-existing symptoms Neurologically normal Axial neck pain and bilateral trapezial pain
19 Initial Treatment Hard cervical collar for 6 weeks 2 sessions of PT NSAIDs, tramadol, gabapentin Trigger point injections.but after 6 months, persistent LEFT sided trapezial and periscapular pain and still unable to work despite light duty release
20 Injury 6 months s/p injury
21 9 months post injury LEFT RIGHT
22 Dislocations Unilateral Less than 50% slippage (sometimes none) Commonly missed
23 Incomplete Spinal Cord Injury Central cord syndrome From a pinch to the spinal cord, usually due to hyperextension Brown-Sequard Syndrome From a cord hemisection, ie sharp penetration
24 Complete Spinal Cord Injury
25 Anterior and Posterior Fusion
26 Vascular Injury Uncommon but potentially fatal Suspected any time a fracture exits into the vertebral foramen CT Angiogram Luckily, most people have redundant blood supply!
27 Accidents are not accidental : when the injured worker already had surgery Pseudarthrosis Can be silent until the new injury 5% per level in ACDF Anterior pseudo usually fixed by going posterior
28 Accidents are not accidental : when the injured worker already had surgery Adjacent segment disease Accepted to occur around 2.5% per year following surgery Injuries can accelerate Fix by going anterior again
29 Accidents are not accidental : when the injured worker already had surgery Hardware fracture Unlikely to happen from trauma Likely due to nonhealing of original surgery May not require treatment
30 Common Treatment Algorithms Conservative Care Physical therapy
31 Common Treatment Algorithms Conservative Care Physical therapy NSAIDs
32 Common Treatment Algorithms Conservative Care Physical therapy NSAIDs Neuromodulatory agents
33 Common Treatment Algorithms Conservative Care Physical therapy NSAIDs Neuromodulatory agents Epidural Injections
34 Common Treatment Algorithms Anterior Surgery Discectomy and Fusion Corpectomy Cervical Disc Replacement
35 Anterior Cervical Discetomy / Fusion
36 ACDF vs. CDR Most studies show equivalence or superiority in favor of CDR Neurologic recovery Reoperation rate Motion Narcotic use BUT.
37 Acute on Chronic Arthritis with Myelopathy
38 Anterior Corpectomy and Fusion
39 Common Treatment Algorithms Posterior Surgery Foraminotomy Laminoplasty Laminectomy and Fusion
40 Acute on Chronic Arthritis with Myelopathy
41 Posterior Laminectomy and Fusion
42 Outcomes
43 Outcomes WC vs Personal Injury Claimants WC with cervical disc herniation had significantly more lost days
44 Outcomes Poor Outcomes In WC patients? WC one of two independent predictors of poor outcomes
45 Outcomes Poor Outcomes In WC patients? But others show no difference in outcomes in carefully selected patients!
46 Outcomes CDR vs. ACDF in WC patients? No difference after 6 months, but more early return to work in CDR population
47 Outcomes Whiplash Injury in WC patients? Consulting a lawyer was an independent predictor of prolonged recovery!
48 Summary Most neck injuries at work can be treated without surgery Common conditions include herniated disc, sprain/strain, and minor fractures Uncommon diagnoses can be severe and require a high index of suspicion to properly diagnose and manage Surgical outcomes can be excellent for workman s compensation patients when imaging and symptoms correlate, and sources of secondary gain are elucidated
