Osteolytic mass bridging two cervical vertebrae: Unusual presentation of a vertebral body hemangioma

Radiology Case Reports, 2014
Vertebral hemangioma is the most common spinal axis tumor. This rare presentation of a vertebral hemangioma extended contiguously from one cervical vertebra to another, encasing the vertebral artery, and thereby mimicking other tumors of the spine.

Fusion of axis with third cervical vertebra: a case report

Romanian Neurosurgery, 2016
Abstract Introduction: Fusion of one or more contiguous vertebral segments is usually the result of embryological failure of normal spinal segmentation. It may be associated with syndromes such as Klippel-Feil. Fused cervical vertebrae (FCV) may also be acquired or pathologic. FCV is generally associated with disease like tuberculosis, other infections,

Morphometric Analysis of Human Second Cervical Vertebrae (Axis)

Journal of Spine, 2017
Possessing an odontoid process and unique superior articular facets, the axis vertebra morphometry significantly differs from morphometry of other cervical vertebrae. The fractures of axis, especially its dens, are very common and surgeries highly risky. Knowledge of the axis dimensions is essential not only for preclinical studies, diagnosis of spinal
