Morphometric analysis of odontoid process among Arab population: a retrospective cone beam CT study [PDF]

PeerJ, 2023
Objective This study aims to evaluate the feasibility of using cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) scans to assess the odontoid process diameter in the Arab population and to determine whether one or two cortical screws can be used for treating odontoid

Vertical Fracture of the Odontoid Process. [PDF]

Cureus, 2021
Fractures of the odontoid process of the axis usually occur transversely at the neck or base of the odontoid, are often displaced, and frequently require surgical fixation. Sagittal or coronal fractures are uncommon and can best be visualized on coronal or sagittal reconstruction of CT scans.

Morphometric evaluation of the body and odontoid process of the axis vertebra and its clinical significance. A cross-sectional anatomical study.

Student's Journal of Health Research Africa
Introduction: The axis, which is the second cervical vertebra, serves as a pivot, allowing the atlas to rotate and support the head. Despite its small size, this area can lead to significant complications because of the intricate anatomy of the cranio-

Stabilizing the unstable: Tuberculosis of the odontoid process with atlanto‐occipital instability—Case report and review of literature [PDF]

Clinical Case Reports
Key Clinical Message Tuberculosis (TB) of the odontoid process is a rare but potentially, a debilitating condition. Surgical intervention, in the form of stabilizing the spine and decompressing the spinal cord, offers a tailored approach to managing this
