Vertebral fractures are the most common skeletal injuries in patients with musculoskeletal problems caused by generalized tonic-clonic seizure. The fracture pattem is generally in benign nature. Diagnosis of the extent of the fractures caused by generalized tonic-cionic seizures is difficult by means of plain radiographs or CT. İn some cases, especially in contiguous multiple level fractures, routine radiographic evaluation may be inadequate and MRI studies may be necessary in planning the proper treatment method.
