Endonasal Odontoidectomy in Basilar Invagination. [PDF]
Abstract Objective The endoscopic endonasal odontoidectomy (EEO) is emerging as a feasible surgical alternative to conventional microscopic transoral approach. In this article, we show EEO in the basilar invagination (BI) and describe in detail the technical aspects, advantages, and disadvantages of this approach (Fig. 1).
