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.

A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

Type D fractures of the odontoid process
Type D fractures of the odontoid process are rare and usually occur in the elderly. The mechanism of fracture is unclear. Non-operative treatment is indicated provided that adequate immobilization using skull traction followed by either a collar or a ...

Morphological variation in atlas and axis of Neotropical spiny rats (Rodentia, Echimyidae)
Abstract The unique morphologies of the first two cervical vertebrae, the atlas and axis, represent a significant innovation in mammalian evolution. These structures support the weight of the head and enable intricate movements of the head and neck.

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