Upper cervical spine injuries.
The unique anatomy of the upper cervical spine and the typical mechanisms of injury yield a predictable variety of injury patterns. Traumatic ligamentous injuries of the atlanto-occipital joint and transverse atlantal ligament are relatively uncommon, have a poor prognosis for healing, and often respond best to surgical stabilization. Bony injuries, including occipital condyle fractures, atlas ...
متن کاملAnatomic Study of Anterior Transdiscal Axial Screw Fixation for Subaxial Cervical Spine Injuries
Anterior transdiscal axial screw (ATAS) fixation is an alternative or supplement to the plate and screw constructs for the upper cervical spine injury. However, no existing literatures clarified the anatomic feasibility of this technique for subaxial cervical spine. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the anatomical feasibility and to establish guidelines for the use of the A...
متن کاملRelationship between facet tropism and facet joint degeneration in the sub-axial cervical spine
BACKGROUND Facet tropism is the angular asymmetry between the left and right facet joint orientation. Although debatable, facet tropism was suggested to be associated with disc degeneration, facet degeneration and degenerative spondylolisthesis in the lumbar spine. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between facet tropism and facet degeneration in the sub-axial cervical sp...
متن کاملQuantification of Pediatric Cervical Growth: Anatomical Changes in the Sub-Axial Spine
OBJECTIVE In order to provide normal values of the pediatric sub-axial cervical spinal canal and vertebral body growth pattern using computed tomographic scans, a total of 318 patients less than 10 years old were included. METHODS The growth of the vertebral body and canal space was investigated using four different age groups. The Torg ratio (TR) was calculated and all patients were classifi...
متن کاملEvaluation of the SLICS use in the treatment of subaxial cervical spine injuries Avaliação do SLICS no tratamento das lesões da coluna cervical sub-axial
Cervical spine trauma can potentially result in serious neurological injury such as tetraplegia or severe disability. Sub-axial cervical spine trauma (SCST), involving the spine levels of C3 to C7, accounts for the majority of cervical spine injuries, comprising about 65% of fractures and 75% of all dislocations that affects the spine1. In an attempt to improve clinical results and compare trea...
