Posterior view• (+) healed abrasion scars • (+) step off deformity at level of T12. posterior displacement of the inferior segment• (-) obvious lateral displacement• (-) open wounds and ulcers• (-) Tenderness on palpation

Lateral view

(+) gross deformity of the thorax, step of deformity

Abdomen is scaphoid

ASIA Classification

• A – complete: no motor and sensory function preserved in sacral segments s4 s5

• B – incomplete: sensory but no motor function preserved below the level of lesion and includes s4 and s5

• C – incomplete: motor preserved with more than half of the key muscles less than 3/5

• D – incomplete: motor preserved with atlest half with grade of atleast 3 or more

• E - normal: sensory and motor functions intact
