=====Trampoline injury=====
Trampolines were responsible for over 6,500 pediatric cervical spine injuries in 1998. This represents a five-fold increase in just 10 years. While most have been minor, [[paraplegia]], [[quadriplegia]] and death are all reported. 

Brown and Lee present 2 cases of trampoline-related [[cervical spine injury]] and review the relevant [[literature]]. Additionally, they examine the efforts made to reduce the incidence of trampoline injuries, and discuss why these have failed. They conclude that safety [[guideline]]s and warnings are inadequate. In addition, they support [[recommendation]]s for a ban on the use of trampolines by children

====Case reports====
A 4-year-old boy who presented with neck pain after falling off a trampoline. His neurological examination did not reveal any focal abnormalities, but radiographs were thought to be consistent with a right, C4-C5, unilateral, jumped facet. 

Reduction attempts were made with Gardner-Wells tongs and traction. After failure to achieve adequate reduction, evaluations using two-dimensional computed tomography confirmed congenitally absent [[cervical pedicle]]s. He was treated conservatively and experienced resolution of their presenting symptoms.

The congenital absence of a cervical pedicle is a rare entity that is frequently misdiagnosed. Diagnoses can be accurately confirmed with two-dimensional computed tomography. [[Conservative treatment]] resulted in successful management of this clinical entity
