Plough Fracture (Anterior Arch Fracture Type Traumatic Posterior Atlantoaxial Dislocation, TPAD‐AOT Type III): A Retrospective Study of Nine Clinical Cases With Complete Imaging Data

BioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
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.

Posterior transodontoid fixation: A new fixation (Kotil) technique

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2011
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.

Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta

The Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 12, Page 3157-3174, December 2025.
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

Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2015
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 ...

Design of a Novel Artificial Atlanto‐Odontoid Joint and Its Anatomical and Radiological Studies Following Transoral Pharyngeal Approach Arthroplasty

Orthopaedic Surgery, Volume 17, Issue 9, Page 2670-2679, September 2025.
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

Odontoid fractures: Management

Journal of Spinal Surgery, 2014
Odontoid fractures account for approximately 20% of all cervical fractures, majority of them being type II. Treatment of odontoid fractures is determined by multiple factors, including fracture type, presence of associated injuries, patient's age and ...

Odontoid process fractures: the role of the ligaments in maintaining stability. A biomechanical, cadaveric study

SICOT-J, 2015
Aims: We wished to investigate the role of the cervical ligaments in maintaining atlantoaxial stability after fracture of the odontoid process. Methods: We dissected eight fresh-frozen cadaveric cervical spines to prepare the C1 and C2 ...
