Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation-induced Thoracic Vertebral Fracture: A Case Report
Thoracic vertebral fractures are very unusual complications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A 78-year-old man developed cardiac arrest after aspirating and conventional CPR was performed. After recovery, the patient had complete paraplegia (Frankel grade A). Magnetic resonance image of spine...

description | Thoracic vertebral fractures are very unusual complications of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A 78-year-old man developed cardiac arrest after aspirating and conventional CPR was performed. After recovery, the patient had complete paraplegia (Frankel grade A). Magnetic resonance image of spine showed a dislocation fracture with hematoma at T6 thoracic level. Computed tomography scan of chest revealed the fracture of sternum. After the patient’s condition became stable with subsequent medical treatment, posterior decompression and pedicle screw fixation was performed. The patient had uneventful postoperative course with continued rehabilitation. Thus, this report emphasizes that care should be taken especially in elderly patients with fragile bone to recognize such rare complication of chest compression; however, adequate compressions to ensure circulation should be maintained. |
