Abstract
The head and cervical spine are unique in that their contents, the brain and spinal cord, are largely incapable of regeneration. Thus, injury to the head and neck takes on a singular importance. While today, many parts of the body can be replaced, either by artifical hardware or transplantation, the head and spine are not included because their contents cannot be transplanted. Verf.-Referat
