Atlantoaxial fixation–anterior or posterior approach: Critical review

open access: yesJournal of Spinal Surgery, 2016
Atlantoaxial facet joints have been proposed as the center of mobility and also center for instability of the atlantoaxial region. Because of the high mobility of the atlantoaxial (C1-C2) motion segment, fusion rates at this level have been substantially

Surgical treatment of a complex craniocervical malformation combined with posterior cranial fossa teratoma: a case report and literature review

open access: yesChinese Neurosurgical Journal, 2021
Background Basilar invagination (BI) with atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) is not uncommon in patients with scoliosis, Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS), and other bone deformities.

Comparison of structural occipital and iliac bone grafts for instrumented atlantoaxial fusions in pediatric patients: Radiologic research and clinical outcomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
BackgroundStructural autografts harvested from the iliac bone have been used in atlantoaxial fusion; they have been the gold standard for years. However, emerging occipital bone grafts have the advantage of avoiding donor-site morbidity and complications.

The Results of Interfacetal Fusion Using Local Bone Combined With an Atlantoaxial Instrumentation

open access: yes, 2022
Background: Many studies have described different C1-2 fusion techniques that have evolved over time. We introduced an easy and effective C1-2 fusion technique using local bone chips combined with atlantoaxial instrumentation. Objective: To identify the

Transarticular screw fixation for atlantoaxial instability - modified Magerl's technique in 38 patients

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2010
Background Symptomatic atlantoaxial instability needs stabilization of the atlantoaxial joint. Among the various techniques described in literature for the fixation of atlantoaxial joint, Magerl's technique of transarticular screw fixation remains the ...

Atlantoaxial Stabilization in Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yes, 1991
Atlantoaxial subluxation in patients with rheumatoid arthritis is common. Operative stabilization is clearly indicated when signs and symptoms of spinal cord compression occur. However, many recommend early operative fusion before evidence of appreciable

Surgical site infection after transoral versus posterior approach for atlantoaxial fusion: a matched-cohort study

open access: yes, 2018
OBJECTIVE In the past, spine surgeons have avoided the transoral approach to the atlantoaxial segment because of concerns for unacceptable patient morbidity.

Use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 as an adjunct for instrumented posterior arthrodesis in the occipital cervical region: An analysis of safety, efficacy, and dosing

open access: yesJournal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2010
Background: There have been few reports on the use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP)-2 in posterior spine. However, no study has investigated the dosing, safety, and efficacy of its use in the posterior atlantoaxial, and/or ...

Human cerebral arterial morphogenesis explored by 3D microscopic imaging of cleared embryos: Bridging the gap between embryonic and adult anatomy

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We provide a description of human embryonic cerebral arterial development based on whole‐mount immunostaining, tissue clearing, three‐dimensional (3D) light‐sheet microscopy imaging, and anatomically informed virtual segmentation of human embryos. Findings are compared with adult radiological anatomy. We provide a detailed account of the development of

Effect of a new type of head and neck fixation and traction device in the surgical treatment of patients with irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2023
Background In order to improve the clinical medical technology, enhance the clinical effect and improve the disease detection rate, the clinical incidence rate of atlantoaxial dislocation and vertebral body malformation that are difficult to summarize is
