Objectives: To describe the clinical characteristics, imaging diagnosis of spinal cord injury in the thoracic-lumbar hinge segment and evaluate the surgical results of the above group of patients by posterior surgical method. Subjects and methods: Retrospective descriptive study of 66 patients diagnosed with thoracic-lumbar spine injury without paralysis and operated at the neurosurgery department of the hospital. Thai Binh Provincial General Hospital from January 2020 to the end of December 2020.

The hunchback angle improved from the maximum 32 degrees after surgery to the smallest 0 degrees. After discharge from hospital, 78.8% of patients had complete pain relief. Overall results: good 59 patients (89.4%), good: 5 patients (7.6%%), moderate: 2 patients (3%), bad: none.
