ABSTRACT Treatment strategies for pediatric rheumatic diseases have changed substantially over the past two decades, driven by the development of biologics and cytokine‐targeted molecular therapy. Therapeutic approaches that modulate both innate and adaptive immune responses have improved prognosis in these immune‐mediated disorders, and early ...

Posterior transodontoid fixation: A new fixation (Kotil) technique
Anterior odontoid screw fixation or posterior C1-2 fusion techniques are routinely used in the treatment of Type II odontoid fractures, but these techniques may be inadequate in some types of odontoid fractures.

Fracture of the anterior arch of the atlas, accompanied by posterior atlantoaxial dislocation, typically presents on CT imaging as the odontoid process penetrating through and causing a high‐energy shear fracture of the anterior arch. This injury may occur with or without retained fracture fragments.

Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta
Abstract Early life behaviors have a profound role in shaping adult craniofacial morphology. During early life, all mammals undergo the dynamic transition from suckling to mastication, a period coinciding with rapid cranial biomineralization. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that impacts the production of type I collagen, disrupts ...

Combined Type II Odontoid Fracture With Axis Anterior Arch Fracture
Associated fractures of the atlas and axis are frequent, particularly in the elderly patients following a simple low-energy fall. This injury can be easily misdiagnosed on initial plain radiographs, and therefore computed tomography scan is a useful ...

The implantation of the novel artificial atlanto‐odontoid joint (AAOJ) is both safe and convenient, and it preserves the normal range of rotational, flexion‐extension, and lateral bending motion between the atlas and axis. ABSTRACT Objective For atlantoaxial joint disorders, traditional surgical approaches often presented challenges such as significant

Sequential Correction Technique for Congenital Cervicothoracic Scoliosis. A novel multi‐rod construct technique offering effective deformity correction, enhanced symmetry, and robust fixation stability. ABSTRACT Objective Hemivertebrae in the cervicothoracic junction in the pediatric population are treated conventionally with a two‐rod instrumentation ...

Objective: Odontoid fractures make up 10-15% of all cervical fractures. Odontoid process fracture and ligament injury can end up with antero- and posterolisthesis at C1-2 complex, subluxation and spinal cord compression. Methods: In this study, 12 cases with odontoid fractures treated at our department were evaluated.

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