Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Acute traumatic spondyloptosis is a rare injury resulting from high-energy impactcreating an unstable injury requiring surgical reconstruction and stabilization. Although rarely described in clinical practice this injury needs to be emphasized due to severe clinical manifestations and poor prognosis due to associated neurological injury. CASE REPORT: In this paper, we report a rare case of traumatic lumbar spondyloptosis at L2-L3 and the reduction technique. Case was managed with minimally invasive technique with percutaneous fixation and reduction. CONCLUSION: These types of rare injuries are a real challenge to manage properly and as the literature is scarce, this marks the further difficulty in their proper management.
