Fractures of the odontoid process of the axis.
Analysis of 15 cases of fracture of the odontoid process of the axis, with a follow-up time of 18 months to 9 years. In 6 cases (40 p. 100) the diagnosis of the fracture was made with a delay extending from one week to 3 months after the accident. The only case complicated with neurological findings was a fracture of the dens without radiological displacement. All patients have been treated con...
متن کاملFractures of the odontoid process AN ANGIOGRAPHIC AND CLINICAL STUDY
We treated 183 patients with fractures of the odontoid process (109 type II, 74 type III) non-operatively. Union was achieved in 59 (54%) with type-II fractures. All type-III fractures united, but in 16 patients union was delayed. There was no correlation between union and the clinical or radiological outcome of the fractures. Selective vertebral angiography, carried out in 18 patients ten with...
متن کامل[Anterior osteosynthesis of odontoid fractures].
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY The conservative treatment of an odontoid fracture with immobilization in a halo-vest or collar often results in pseudoarthrosis. Therefore, surgical treatment is preferred, and the Magerl-Böhler anterior osteosynthesis of the C2 dens is one of the options for achieving good bony union. The aim of this study was to show that the success of reducing an odontoid fracture is r...
متن کاملCurrent Management of Odontoid Fractures
The C1-2 complex allows far more motion than any other single level in the cervical spine. This motion is predominantly rotational, since translational motion at C1C2 is limited by the strong transverse ligament. This restriction is lost after fracture of the odontoid and may be associated with anteroor retrolisthesis of the C1-C2 complex in relation to the C2 body. This may result in spinal co...
