Basilar Invagination: A Tilt of the Foramen Magnum

World Neurosurgery, 2022
Congenital basilar invagination (BI) is a craniocervical deformity marked by odontoid prolapse into the skull base. The foramen magnum angle (FMA), which is formed by the Chamberlain's line and McRae's line, has not been fully studied. The study aimed to investigate the FMA and its relationship with other craniocervical parameters.Participants were ...

Radiological Evaluation of 510 Cases of Basilar Invagination with Evidence of Atlantoaxial Instability (Group A Basilar Invagination)

World Neurosurgery, 2018
To evaluate the musculoskeletal and soft tissue neural alterations in cases with group A basilar invagination.Between January 2007 and August 2016, 510 patients with group A basilar invagination were surgically treated. The radiologic images of these patients were reviewed retrospectively.

Treatment of basilar invagination

European Spine Journal, 2014
Basilar invagination is a rare craniocervical malformation which may lead to neurological deficits related to compression of brainstem and upper cervical cord as well as instability of the craniocervical junction. This study presents results of a treatment algorithm developed over a 20-year period focussing on anatomical findings, short-term and long ...

Basilar Invagination: A Craniocervical Kyphosis

World Neurosurgery, 2018
For more than a century, odontoid process prolapse, which compresses cranial base structures, has been the hallmark of basilar invagination (BI). The angulation of the whole skull toward the cervical spine may be considered to contribute to BI and odontoid prolapse.

Diagnosing Atlantoaxial Impaction and Basilar Invagination

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2002
To The Editor: We read with interest “Diagnosing Basilar Invagination in the Rheumatoid Patient. The Reliability of Radiographic Criteria” (2001;83:194-200), by Riew et al. Their study, which was well conducted, demonstrates the difficulty in establishing this diagnosis.

Basilar Impression and Invagination

2016
Basilar impression (secondary/acquired) and invagination (primary) develop when the odontoid process of C2 migrates into the foramen magnum, causing compression of the brainstem and upper cervical spine. The terms are often used interchangeably because the symptoms and treatment are similar. For the purposes of this chapter, both basilar impression and

Basilar Invagination, Basilar Impression, and Platybasia: Clinical and Imaging Aspects

Current Pain and Headache Reports, 2016
The congenital and acquired deformities of the craniovertebral junction (CVJ), such as basilar invagination, basilar impression, or platybasia, can present in the form of slowly progressive or acute neurologic deterioration. In many cases, an insidious headache is the only symptom and can be a diagnostic challenge for the neurologist.

Visualization of Basilar Invagination by Computerized Tomography

Archives of Neurology, 1979
Computerized tomography was used to visualize bony masses in the posterior fossa in a patient with basilar invagination associated with symptoms of vertebrobasilar insufficiency.
