Abstract/Notes

Narrative: We present a series of radiological findings related to disruption of cervical spinal segments.

These somatic anatomical sites of earlier physical disturbances are considered to have the potential to activate or re-activate noxious sensory insult and initiate somatosensory reflexes. These components comprise central elements of a vertebral subluxation complex (VSC).

The findings suggest that pathoanatomical segmental juxtaposition (displacement) and pathophysiological vertebral function (dysfunction) may activate noxious input to involve somatosensory, somato-autonomic, somato-somatic, somatovisceral and somatovascular reflexes.
