She was initially taken to Polyclinic Hospital and subsequently transferred to Hershey Medical Center, There was ecchymosis noted over the abdominal region; she complained of some back pain. Radiographs revealed a flexion distraction injury of the 1.2 vertebrae, Her molor examinalion was enlirely normal, 515 molor strength for all muscle groups of the upper anu lower extremities, There was a question of having decreased sensation to light touch and pin prick over the right and left anlerior medial thigh uermatomes, She was placed into a hyperextension body cast to allow for possible osseous healing of the spinal fracture, Good alignment of lhe vertebral column was achieved with lhe hyperextension castalld she was discharged to home on September 21. 1995, She was seen in Pediatric Orthopaedic Clinic on October 7, 1995, She had been tolertlling her cast quite well.
