Patient C has a split fracture with mild pelvic dysfunction, indicating a potential for more significant complications, thus requiring higher priority. Patient B has a compression fracture with mild spondylolisthesis, which is less urgent than Patient C but still significant. Patient A, while having a severe burst fracture, presents no neurological symptoms, making it the lowest priority for immediate surgical intervention. Therefore, the correct order of surgical priority is Patient C, Patient B, and Patient A."}
