I dont think so but it can result in full body paralysis.
Spinal cord infarction means that there was some damage to the spinal cord, or the blood supply to the spinal cord, which caused cell death there. Depending on severity and level, this could result in paralysis for the patient.
It depends on what part of the brain or spinal cord. If it is in the brain it can cause death or complete paralysis, if it is in the spinal cord e.g. Lower part of the spinal cord you are paralysed from the hips down.
i don't know:)its a cord in you spine. To improve upon this it is actually a fracture in a vertibrae.

An incomplete spinal cord injury happens when only part of the spinal cord is damaged. This will result in a variety of residual muscle control, sensation or both.
Neck fracture can easily cause damage to the spinal cord, but this does not always happen, especially if the neck has been supported and immobilised quickly and properly.
Breaking the spinal cord typically occurs due to traumatic injuries, such as those sustained in car accidents, falls, or sports-related incidents. The injury can result in a fracture or dislocation of the vertebrae, which may compress or sever the spinal cord itself. Such damage can lead to loss of sensation, mobility, or function below the injury site. It's crucial to seek immediate medical attention in the event of any spinal injury.
In a crush fracture, the vertebral body collapses. This may not cause displacement of intervertebral (IV) discs or any of the verebral components. Thus, the spinal cord is unlikely to get injured. Crush fracture of the body indicates collapse, and so long the vertebral arch and IV discs are not dirupted the spinal canal will not be compromised. But that may also be applicable to all regions. The thoracic region however as it is convex posteriorly, collapse of the vertebral body will simply increase the convexity.
Yes, you can fracture a vertebra without breaking the spinal cord.
Stenosis or osteophytes can compress the spinal cord and its blood vessels, impeding or choking off needed nutrients to the spinal cord cells; in effect, the cells starve to death.
Death is one.
Tethered Spinal Cord is a condition where the spinal cord is attached to the spinal column and that causes the cord to become stretched.
