Traumatic Atlantoaxial Dislocation with Type II Odontoid Fractures: A Case Report
BACKGROUND: Odontoid fracture frequently ensues after a cervical trauma, and most commonly at the junction between the dens and the body (type II odontoid fracture). CASE PRESENTATION: This report is focused on a 24-years-old male patient with right-sided hemiparesis, resulting from traumatic atlant...

description | BACKGROUND: Odontoid fracture frequently ensues after a cervical trauma, and most commonly at the junction between the dens and the body (type II odontoid fracture). CASE PRESENTATION: This report is focused on a 24-years-old male patient with right-sided hemiparesis, resulting from traumatic atlantoaxial dislocation with type II odontoid fracture. Cervical CT-scanning showed a spondylolisthesis of the C1-C2 complex with type II odontoid fracture, and the injury was treated using posterior reduction and internal stabilization. Therefore, hemiparesis was reduced, and during the follow-up period, our patients were disease-free. CONCLUSION: Early diagnosis and the appropriate management of atlantoaxial trauma is a possible approach towards preventing severe neurological deficits. |
