Spine injuries pattern noted after Asiana jet crash in San Francisco
Surgeons report a consistent pattern of spine injuries among survivors of the Asiana jet crash in San Francisco with crushed vertebrae and torn ligaments. Doctor Geoffrey Manley notes several patients require surgery to stabilize spines and two cannot move their legs. Experts discuss whether shoulder belts on airplanes could prevent similar injuries, and the industry cautions that three point belts would demand major design changes and higher fares.
