Original Article - Craniovertebral realignment for basilar invagination and atlantoaxial dislocation secondary to rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Objective: We present our experience of treating nine consecutive cases of rheumatoid arthritis involving the craniovertebral junction by atlantoaxial joint manipulation and attempts towards restoration of craniovertebral region alignments.

REDUCTION AND INTERNAL FIXATION OF COMPLEX FRACTURES OF THE ODONTOID BY THE TRANSORAL APPROACH

open access: yes, 2018
Type II odontoid fractures with irreducible posterior displacement are uncommon, and can cause spinal cord compression, respiratory failure and even death. Treatment is usually surgical, with transoral decompression and posterior fusion or with reduction

A Case of Cardiac Arrest during C1 Laminectomy for Irreducible Atlantoaxial Subluxation

open access: yes, 2021
We report a case of cardiac arrest, which occurred during C1 laminectomy for irreducible atlantoaxial subluxation, with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) upon interruption of the laminectomy. A 60-year-old woman with rheumatoid arthritis presented

Posterior spinal fusion using a unilateral C1 posterior arch screw and a C2 laminar screw for atlantoaxial fracture dislocation

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2019
Introduction: C1 lateral mass screws and C2 pedicle screws are usually chosen to fix atlantoaxial (C1–C2) instability. However, there are a few situations in which these screws are difficult to use, such as in a case with a fracture line at the screw ...

Pharyngeal perforation: A rare complication of occipitocervical injury.

open access: yes, 2021
Atlantoaxial dislocation is a rare injury following high-energy trauma. We report an undescribed complication of atlantoaxial dislocation. A 75-year-old man presented with atlantoaxial dislocation and Jefferson C1 fracture after a high-energy trauma ...

Orientation of C1-2 joints in congenital atlantoaxial dislocation

open access: yesJournal of Spinal Surgery, 2014
Aim: To study the C1-2 facets in patients with congenital atlantoaxial dislocation and their bearing on the presentation and management. Materials and methods: Thirty-six patients of congenital AAD were studied in the last 2 years.

Reduction of atlantoaxial dislocation prevented by pathological position of the transverse ligament in fixed, irreducible os odontoideum: operative illustrations and radiographic correlates in 41 patients

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVEOs odontoideum (OO) is a craniovertebral junction (CVJ) abnormality in which an ossicle (small bone) is cranial to a hypoplastic dens by a variable gap. This abnormality can result in instability, which may be reducible or irreducible.

Vertebral artery dissection caused by atlantoaxial dislocation in a patient with Marfan syndrome

open access: yes, 2023
A small number of case reports have documented a link between atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD) and vertebral artery dissection (VAD), but this association has never been described in patients with hereditary connective tissue disorders.

Controversies in neurosurgery: Irreducible basilar invagination and atlanto-axial dislocation: A trans-oral procedure may be avoided in a majority, but still may be required in some cases

open access: yesIndian Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013
Basilar invagination (BI) and atlanto-axial dislocation (AAD) are mostly irreducible in nature and are quite complex pathologies to manage. Traditionally they required a trans-oral excision of odontoid process followed by a posterior instrumented fusion.

Chronic neglected irreducible atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation in adolescence

open access: yes, 2016
Atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF) is a rare condition and delayed diagnosis. We report a case of chronic neglected atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation in adolescence child that was treated by serial skull traction followed by posterior fusing by method
