X-ray Vision: Case 1

Welcome to our X-ray of the month!  Below is an image from a patient seen in our very own ED.  Take a look at the image and the short case history.  Respond in the comments if and suggest your diagnosis and management!  I’ll post the answer Friday.  Good Luck!

You see this 13yo F brought in by EMS boarded and collared after MVA.  As you attempt to clear her cervical spine you note midline C-spine tenderness and obtain the above  X-ray.

Please put in a complete read and let me know if you want any more information.
