“…[13] Fractures of the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae may result from direct blunt trauma (as in motor vehicle accidents), violent lateral flexion-extension forces (as in sports particularly football), avulsion of the psoas muscle or Malgaigne fractures of the pelvis. [134] Fractures of the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae usually occur as the result of major forces and a statistically significant association between transverse process fractures and abdominal injury has been reported. [5] Although transverse fracture of the lumbar vertebra can be a marker of associated visceral injuries including trauma to the abdominal viscera, retroperitoneum, spine, long bones and cranium,[35] the fractures of the transverse processes of the lumbar spine can occur in the absence of other vertebral and visceral damage.…”

“…Suggested treatments for those with healing transverse process fractures include rest, ice, analgesic medications, strengthening of abdominal and lumbar musculature, trunk flexibility exercises, and the use of bracing or corsets. 5,6 The treatment approach used in this case was mechanical diagnosis and therapy (MDT) or the McKenzie method; it is a system of assessment, classification, management, and prevention of spinal and extremity joint symptoms. Mechanical diagnosis and therapy uses the symptomatic and mechanical responses to repeated end range movements and sustained postures to classify patients into one of three mechanical syndromes: derangement, dysfunction, or postural.…”
