Proposal of a new method for treating type II odontoid fractures: Odontoid process prosthetic (Ti)

open access: yes, 2008
A novel method for treating type II odontoid fractures is presented. The use of a sintered titanium odontoid prosthetic could eliminate long healing times associated with external fixation methods, and the neurological deficits associated with non-union ...

Morphometric analysis of the odontoid process: using computed tomography—in the Greek population

open access: yes, 2016
Aim: A morphometric analysis of the odontoid process of the A2 vertebra, in the Greek population, was conducted using CT scan. We aimed to determine the feasibility to use one or two screws when treating fractures of this anatomic element.
