Novel MRI Signs in Atlantodental Space Predict Reduction Degree of Atlantoaxial Dislocation. [PDF]

open access: yesOrthop Surg
We summarized cases of AAD, classified based on the atlantodental space using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). and preliminarily explored its impact on the degree of reduction. We found patients with high signal intensity were more likely to achieve satisfactory reduction after direct posterior surgery.

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.

Atlantoaxial Dislocation with Bony Fusion of C1/2 Facet Joints Treated with Posterior Joint Release, Distraction and Reduction

open access: yesSpine Surgery and Related Research, 2022
Introduction: Atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) is a complicated and challenging deformity with severe morbidities. Irreducible AAD with C1/2 bony fusion requires anterior (transoral or transnasal) odontoidectomy to decompress spinal cord or medulla, which ...

A novel 3D-printed locking cage for anterior atlantoaxial fixation and fusion: case report and in vitro biomechanical evaluation

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Treatment of atlantoaxial dislocation is aimed at reduction and stabilization of the atlantoaxial joint. 3D printing refers to a process where additive manufacturing is achieved under precise computer control.

The Classification of Axial Deformity in Patients with Basilar Invagination

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 14, Issue 12, Page 3150-3158, December 2022., 2022
Axis deformities were divided into four types. Type I: the axis is basically normal. Type II: axis lateral mass is dysplasia. Type III: axis pedicle is dysplasia. Type IV: axis pedicle and lateral mass are all dysplasia. The axis variation rate of patients with basilar invagination was as high as 42.4%, of which type IV was the most common.

The clinical validity of atlantoaxial joint inclination angle and reduction index for atlantoaxial dislocation

open access: yesFrontiers in Surgery, 2023
ObjectiveAtlantoaxial dislocation patients with neurological defects require surgery. Sometimes, release surgery is necessary for irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation to further achieve reduction.

Posterior Surgery in the Treatment of Craniovertebral Junction Deformity with Torticollis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Surgery, Volume 14, Issue 10, Page 2418-2426, October 2022., 2022
The female, 11 years old, was found to be torticollis for 5 months. (A) The patient showed left torticollis. (B–D) Preoperative CT suggested rotational fixation of atlantoaxial vertebrae, and ADI was 4.3 mm. (E) Axial MRI indicates relaxation of transverse ligament. (F) Postoperative torticollis correction.

Concomitant atlantoaxial and atlanto-occipital rotatory dislocation in children: Radiological features, diagnostic pitfalls, and long-term outcome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
While the pathological manifestation of atlantoaxial rotatory dislocation has been well described in the medical literature, the combined dislocation of the atlantoaxial and atlanto-occipital joints, or OAARD – short for occipital-atlantoaxial rotatory ...
