The range of atlanto‐occipital joint motion in cetaceans reflects their feeding behavior

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, 2019
AbstractThe cetaceans display a wide variety of lifestyles, especially with regard to their feeding behavior. However, the evolutionary process of the feeding behavior in cetaceans is still poorly understood, in part because reconstructing the feeding behavior of extinct taxa remains difficult.

The atlanto-occipital joint: a concise review of its anatomy and injury

open access: yesAnatomy, 2017
The atlanto-occipital joint (AOJ) is an important transitional region, which supports and stabilizes the cranium to the spine with its surrounding ligamentous structures. An injury to this joint is often accompanied by brain injury and may be fatal. A good understanding of the anatomy of this joint is required to timely diagnose an AOJ instability and ...

A comparative study to evaluate the cervical spine movements during laryngoscopy using Macintosh and Airtraq laryngoscopes

open access: yesJournal of Anaesthesiology Clinical Pharmacology
Background and Aim: Intubation with Macintosh requires flexing the lower cervical spine and extending the atlanto-occipital joint to create a “line of sight.” Primary aim of study was to compare the extent of cervical spine movement during laryngoscopy ...
