Anterior inferior corner fracture of the C6 vertebral body with extension into the intervertebral disc space and severe anterior widening of the C6/C7 intervertebral disc space consistent with hyperextension fracture. Subtle high T2 signal in the right superior articular process of the right C7 corresponds to a nondisplaced fracture visualized on CT. The anterior longitudinal ligament is disrupted at the level of the fracture with a small anterior prevertebral haematoma extending to the level of C2 superiorly. There is exaggerated angulation at C6/C7 at the level of the fracture with moderate canal stenosis and obliteration of the CSF space surrounding the cord. No evidence of epidural haematoma, or intrinsic cord signal abnormality to suggest oedema or cord contusion.
