Abstract

Authors report on experiences gained during the treatment of the injury of the lower thoracal spine in a 64 year old male patient and review the relating literature. As a consequence of the basic disease fractures may occur following rather trivial traumas. As all ligaments are calcified a particular unstable state will develop following the fracture.
