Abstract
While cervical spine injuries are unusual in children, when they occur they frequently cause death or life-long disability. The primary care practitioner should be familiar with the signs and symptoms of cervical spine injuries, know the proper techniques of initial management, and engage in anticipatory guidance to prevent these injuries.
