Atlanto-occipital fusion: A case report

Medical Journal of Dr. D.Y. Patil University, 2015
The atlas is the first cervical vertebra. In the history of anatomy, due to its primary function of supporting the skull, it has been innumerably compared with Atlas the Greek God, who holds the globe of the earth on his shoulders.

Superficial anterior atlanto-occipital ligament: Anatomy of a forgotten structure with relevance to craniocervical stability

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2019
Introduction: The superficial anterior atlanto-occipital ligament (SAAOL) is a narrowband located anterior to the anterior atlanto-occipital membrane. Nearly forgotten, it has not been well described in older anatomical textbooks and is missing in the ...

Multiple anomalies in the atlanto-occipital joint (articulation atlanto-occipitalis) [PDF]

Anthropological Review, 2013
Contemporary populations exhibit numerous skeletal anatomical variations and the atlanto-occipital joint (articulation atlanto-occipitalis) is often the location of such variations. A female skeleton dated at 4000 BC and excavated at Meroe in the Sudan provides an example of numerous variations in the basilar skull and cervical vertebrae.

Feasibility of Ultrasound Guided Atlanto-occipital Joint Injection [PDF]

Annals of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2012
To evaluate the feasibility of ultrasound guided atlanto-occipital joint injection.Six atlanto-occipital joints of three cadavers were examined. Cadavers were placed in prone position with their head slightly rotated towards the contra-lateral side. The atlanto-occipital joint was initially identified with a longitudinal ultrasound scan at the midline ...

Atlanto-Occipital Joint Blockage not Mentioned [PDF]

Deutsches Ärzteblatt international, 2016
As so often when the subject of dizziness is concerned, this article too is lacking an important etiology of dizziness (1). A blockage of the atlanto-occipital joint causes unfocused dizziness, which in older people may well be accompanied by unstable gait, and, additionally, often headache and sensations of eye flashes on the affected side. This cause
