Injury of the spinal cord has been known since antiquity. There is
no cure for the injury and until modern times patients died rapidly
from a combination of pressure sores and urinary tract infection.
Treatment consists of preventing complications until the spine has
stabilised and the patient can be rehabilitated to an independent
life. History of the Treatment of Spinal Injuries explores how this
treatment developed in the Ancient World, the Middle Ages, in
Europe, Great Britain and latterly in the United States. It
describes how these principles of treatment were recognised and
explores the relationship and rivalry of the powerful personalities
of the doctors who developed this treatment against the social
background at different times.
