Robot-assisted atlantoaxial fixation: illustrative cases. [PDF]

J Neurosurg Case Lessons, 2022
BACKGROUND Placing screws in the high cervical spine can be challenging because of the vital anatomical structures located in that region. Precision and accuracy with screw placement is needed. The use of robotics in the cervical spine has been described before; however, here the authors describe the use of a ...

Dorsal C1-2 Spinal Cord Compression After Reduction of Atlantoaxial Posterior Dislocation Associated With Os Odontoideum: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

Orthop Surg
Successful reduction of os odontoideum‐associated atlantoaxial posterior dislocation may not always guarantee adequate C1–2 canal space. In patients with congenital atlas hypoplasia or posterior arch osteophytes, postreduction dorsal cord compression should be anticipated, and C1 posterior arch decompression may be required to prevent neurological ...
