We have been observing lately an
exponential growth of patients consulting on neurootological and
neurosensorial disorders secondary to cervicocephalic trauma due to
traffic accidents, to such an extent that we could nowadays talk
about a disease of modern civilization or contemporary disease.
During years 1978 through 1980, we have
carried out a study in Germany on the incidence of these lesions,
particularly caused by massive collisions on highways and by ski
falls.
Statistics at that moment showed that 11%
of patients have consulted on craniocephalic trauma background, this
figure went up to 28% in recent years.
The name or denomination Whiplash Injury
derives from the etiopathogenic description of the sudden sharp
whipping movement of the head and neck, produced at the moment of a
traffic accident, particularly subsequent to collisions from the
rear, head-on or side collisions.
