Abstract
The authors reviewed 162 clinical cases selected from several cases and referring to paraplegic patients, who have been treated in a polyvalent rehabilitation centre during approximately 20 years. The cases studied focused on those of vertebro-medullar traumatisms due to water sports, work and road accidents, since in the authors' opinion the inclusion of the latter is of particular interest to the global comparative analysis.
