We believe that spontaneous reduction of fracture-dislocation of the cervical spine may occur. We found two groups of patients to have spontaneous reduction based on resultant operative findings. Group 1: Initial radiograph on admission showed normal alignment but operative findings showed a pattern of fracture dislocation. Group 2: Radiograph at previous hospital showed fracture dislocation but initial radiograph on admission showed normal alignment. Group 1 had 9 patients and Group 2 had 3 patients. The results indicated that we must consider that spontaneous reduction of a fracture dislocation of the cervical spine can occuve in patients with acute injury to the cervical spine.
