Stab injuries to the spine represent a small percentage of these cases; these are rare injuries; its management may differ compared with other penetrating injuries; these injuries are frequently complicated with neurological damage; the most common clinical manifestation is Brown\u2013Sequard syndrome, and the most common segment involved is the thoracic region; stab injuries to the lumbar spine are rarely found in the literature. The management of patients without neurological involvement is controversial due to the risk of neurologic deterioration intraoperatively. However, failure to adequately intervene increases the risk of permanent neurological deficit, worsening functional outcomes, cerebral fluid leakage and infections. A short review of the literature and a case report are presented.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjab163","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,4,24]],"date-time":"2021-04-24T11:09:18Z","timestamp":1619262558000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Stab injury to the spine without neurological involvement: a report of a rare case"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"2021","author":[{"given":"Carlos","family":"Castillo Amaya","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Guatemalteco de Seguridad Social, Ortopedia y Traumatolog\u00eda, Guatemala City, Guatemala"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jose Antonio","family":"Prieto Mer\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Guatemalteco de Seguridad Social, Ortopedia y Traumatolog\u00eda, Guatemala City, Guatemala"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Andres","family":"Cobar Bustamante","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Hospital Centro Medico, Ortopedia y Traumatologia, Guatemala City, Guatemala"},{"name":"Traumatolog\u00eda y Ortopedia (TYO) Updated Research Group, Guatemala"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Rudolf Mauricio","family":"Herrera Ovalle","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Guatemalteco de Seguridad Social, Ortopedia y Traumatolog\u00eda, Guatemala City, Guatemala"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Francisco","family":"Alonzo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Instituto Guatemalteco de Seguridad Social, Ortopedia y Traumatolog\u00eda, Guatemala City, Guatemala"},{"name":"Hospital Centro Medico, Ortopedia y Traumatologia, Guatemala City, Guatemala"},{"name":"Traumatolog\u00eda y Ortopedia (TYO) Updated Research Group, Guatemala"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,5,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"184","DOI":"10.1159\/000279335","article-title":"Incidence of spinal cord injury worldwide: a systematic review","volume":"34","author":"Van den Berg","year":"2010","journal-title":"Neuroepidemiology"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref2","first-page":"961","article-title":"A review of 450 stab wounds of the spinal cord","volume":"51","author":"Peacock","year":"1977","journal-title":"S Afr Med J"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"144","DOI":"10.1007\/BF01403200","article-title":"Non- missile penetrating injuries of the spine","volume":"113","author":"Thakur","year":"1991","journal-title":"Acta Neurochir"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref4","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"81","DOI":"10.1016\/S0973-0508(09)80035-X","article-title":"Non-missile penetrating spinal injuries","volume":"6","author":"Goyal","year":"2009","journal-title":"Indian J Neurotrauma"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S535","DOI":"10.1007\/s00586-012-2182-6","article-title":"The role of MRI in spinal stab wounds compared with intraoperative findings","volume":"21","author":"Emich","year":"2012","journal-title":"Eur Spine J"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"57","DOI":"10.4103\/0974-8237.100052","article-title":"Penetrating spinal injuries and their management","volume":"2","author":"Kumar","year":"2011","journal-title":"J Craniovert Jun Spine"},{"key":"2021070811430797300_ref7","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1365","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jocn.2008.10.020","article-title":"An unusual stab wound causing a traumatic pseudomeningocele at the craniocervial junction.
