Modified thoracolumbar injury classification and severity score (TLICS) and its clinical usefulness.

CONCLUSION: The mTLICS score corrects deficiencies in the TLICS system that lead to ambiguity in the radiological diagnostic criteria. mTLICS is a more suitable scoring system than TLICS for predicting surgical management accurately, especially for morphological injuries.
