*Cervical fracture *Fracture of C1, including Jefferson fracture *Fracture of C2, including Hangman's fracture *Flexion teardrop fracture – a fracture of the anteroinferior aspect of a cervical vertebra *Clay-shoveler fracture – fracture through the spinous process of a vertebra occurring at any of the lower cervical or upper thoracic vertebrae *Burst fracture – in which a vertebra breaks from a high-energy axial load *Compression fracture – a collapse of a vertebra, often resulting in the form of a wedge-shape due to larger compression anteriorly *Chance fracture – compression injury to the anterior portion of a vertebral body with concomitant distraction injury to posterior elements *Holdsworth fracture – an unstable fracture dislocation of the thoracolumbar junction of the spine *Distraction is where there is a pulling apart of the vertebrae. Distraction injuries generally cause breaks in osseous and ligamentous supporting structures, and are therefore generally unstable. A distraction injury on the posterior side of a vertebra can lead to a compression fracture on its anterior side.
