Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 10, Page 2269-2275, October 2026.Successful reduction of os odontoideum‐associated atlantoaxial posterior dislocation may not always guarantee adequate C1–2 canal space. In patients with congenital atlas hypoplasia or posterior arch osteophytes, postreduction dorsal cord compression should be anticipated, and C1 posterior arch decompression may be required to prevent neurological ...

Endoscopic‐Assisted Posterior Atlantoaxial Fusion: Technical Innovation and Clinical Experience
Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 18, Issue 8, Page 1768-1782, August 2026.Endoscopic‐assisted posterior atlantoaxial lateral mass fusion is introduced as a novel minimally invasive technique for treating atlantoaxial instability. The approach enables direct visualization, precise fixation, and effective bone fusion while minimizing muscle dissection, blood loss, and postoperative pain, achieving rapid neurological and ...
