The case histories of 247 patients with spinal damages caused by a fall from a height are analysed. In 180 (75.3%) patients the damage to the spine was combined with traumas of other localization. The author emphasizes the specific features of the diagnosis and the tactics of management of patients with trauma attended by multiple and concurrent injuries and calling for physicians of allied specialties to take part in the examination and treatment. The methods of treatment of spinal damages are chosen strictly individually and are combined with nonoperative or operative management of injuries to other parts of the skeleton.
