Fig 2. Distribution of prevalent and adjacent and nonadjacent incident fractures. The distribution of adjacent- and nonadjacent-level fractures is significantly different. Adjacent-level fractures predominate at the thoracolumbar junction (T11–L2), whereas nonadjacent-level fractures predominate in the midthoracic region of the spine (T7–T9).
