Posterior atlantoaxial facet screw fixation
Journal of Neurosurgery, 1993✓ Eighteen patients with atlantoaxial instability were treated with posterior atlantoaxial facet screws to obtain immediate rigid fixation of C1–2. Of these 18 patients, instability occurred due to trauma in nine, rheumatoid arthritis in six, neoplasms in two, and os odontoideum in one.

Pathomechanism of Atlantoaxial Rotatory Fixation in Children
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1989The pathomechanism of atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) was studied using roentgenography and computerized tomography in affected children as well as cadaver studies of upper cervical spine anatomy. The increased incidence of AARF in children may be related to certain anatomical differences between children and adults.

Object. In this, the first of two articles regarding C1–2 transarticular screw fixation, the authors assessed the rate of fusion, surgery-related complications, and lessons learned after C1–2 transarticular screw fixation in an adult patient series.Methods. The authors retrospectively reviewed 191 consecutive patients (107 women and 84 men; mean age 49.

Torticollis due to atlantoaxial rotatory fixation
Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2008Torticollis due to atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) is rare. Most cases are idiopathic or occur after infection or minor trauma. AARF can cause neurologic deficits, and patients often present with torticollis that fails to resolve. AARF should be excluded before idiopathic spasmodic torticollis is diagnosed. Computed tomography helps in confirming

Effect of Rehabilitation on a Child With Atlantoaxial Rotatory Fixation
Spine, 2013Case report.To discuss a case of atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) successfully treated with manual therapy.A 9-year-old girl experienced acute torticollis and neck stiffness after a traffic accident. Image studies revealed AARF, a cause of pediatric torticollis.

Failure of posterior titanium atlantoaxial cable fixation
The Spine Journal, 2003The operative treatment of rotatory atlantoaxial instability remains controversial. The use of cable fixation has largely replaced the use of wire for interlaminar fixation. Although cable fixation offers biomechanical advantages over wire fixation, it is still at risk of fatigue failure.

The biomechanical study of atlantoaxial fixation.
Journal of the Medical Association of Thailand = Chotmaihet thangphaet, 2001Recent studies of various C(1-2) constructs have confirmed superior stability with transarticular screw fixation. In the meantime, our study on the C2 morphology in Thai people found about 4 per cent of the pedicles were too small for the 3.5 mm. C(1-2) transarticular screw.
