The brunt is borne by the torso\/back, specifically, the lungs, ribs, and posterior aspect of the spine. The injuries result from direct trauma, sudden deceleration, barotrauma, and hyperflexion. Computerized tomography (CT) is the imaging of choice in the assessment of these injuries. Prompt evacuation to an equipped center, whilst stabilizing the spine in the suspected, proves pivotal to the outcome.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adverse slamming dynamics cause accidental injuries in helocasting. Thorax and spine are predominantly traumatized, both directly and indirectly, and are assessed best using CT. Timely spine stabilization and evacuation prove vital.
