Zusammenfassung: | We report a case of traumatic spondylolisthesis in a 31-year-old man struck by a steel I-beam. Although most reported traumatic spondylolisthesis cases are from low-energy trauma, this was a high-energy trauma case.

We present this rare case, with a review of pertinent literature and treatment mechanisms for traumatic spondylolisthesis. |
