Odontoid screw fixation of a type II odontoid fracture in a patient with autofused C2–C3 vertebral bodies

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

Postcranial anatomy of the Miocene hippopotamoids of Toros‐Menalla, Chad

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We establish a framework for the identification of postcranial remains in hippopotamoids by describing and comparing for the first time two late Miocene hippopotamoids from Toros‐Menalla, Chad (Hexaprotodon garyam, an early hippopotamid, and Libycosaurus bahri, the last African anthracothere) with the common hippopotamus.

Odontoidectomy through posterior midline approach followed by same sitting occipitocervical fixation: A cadaveric study

Journal of Craniovertebral Junction and Spine, 2017
Object: Atlantoaxial instability with irreducible odontoid process is one of the challenges in spine surgery. These lesions are commonly treated through anterior transoral approach which is followed by posterior atlantoaxial fusion.

A Rare Case of Type II Odontoid Fracture With Bilateral Vertebral Arteries Occlusion Without Neurological Deficits

International Clinical Neuroscience Journal, 2020
Cervical spine fractures are common fractures due to spine trauma. Odontoid fracture is responsible for 20% of cervical spine fractures. Vertebral artery injuries (VAIs) had widely focused in this setting due to its occurrence with upper cervical ...

Endoscopic‐Assisted Posterior Atlantoaxial Fusion: Technical Innovation and Clinical Experience

Orthopaedic Surgery, EarlyView.
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 ...

Investigation of the effects of odontoid bone anatomical location and structure on cervical lordosis angle in cervical ct examinations: A clinical study

Batı Karadeniz Tıp Dergisi
Aim: In literature, anatomical variations of the odontoid process in the sagittal plane have been suggested to influence the magnitude of cervical lordosis.

Population level data on aging in periodontal and peri‐implant health—Aging is not a contraindication for periodontal or peri‐implant therapy

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Global population aging is leading to a greater retention of natural teeth into later life and an increasing prevalence of dental implant therapy. Although advanced age has traditionally been regarded as a risk factor for compromised outcomes, population level evidence remains lacking.

A morphometric study of the odontoid process using three-dimensional computed tomography (3-D CT) reconstruction

, 2019
Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the morphometric parameters of the odontoid process using 3-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of computed tomography (CT) images and investigate the applicability of using one or two screws for fixing ...
