Odontoid screw fixation of a type II odontoid fracture in a patient with autofused C2–C3 vertebral bodies [PDF]
Interdisciplinary Neurosurgery, 2018 Background: Anterior odontoid screw fixation for the treatment of type II odontoid fractures, in contrast to posterior C1–2 fusion, allows for maintenance of cervical rotatory motion at C1–2. The approach requires an accessible C2–3 disc space from which

Odontoid Fracture in a Patient With Diffuse Idiopathic Skeletal Hyperostosis [PDF]
Geriatric Orthopaedic Surgery & Rehabilitation, 2017 Nonoperative management of fractures in the setting of diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) or ankylosing spondylitis is often unsuccessful. The subaxial spine is a common site of hyperextension fractures in the setting of DISH.

, 2006 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.
