متن کاملAnalytical static stress analysis of first cervical vertebra (atlas).
INTRODUCTION Fracture of the atlas was first described by Jefferson (1920). He theorised a bursting mechanism of fracture as the occipital condyles were driven into the atlas. Experimental studies by Hays and Alker (1988) and Panjabi et al (1991) were also conducted to explain the injury mechanisms. Injury mechanisms and fracture patterns are important in the clinical evaluation of spinal injur...
متن کاملMalformations of the atlas vertebra simulating the Jefferson fracture.
Congenital clefts and aplasias of the atlas vertebra, while rare, are often first encountered in the emergency room setting. Thirty-six patients with atlas malformations and 10 with Jefferson fractures were encountered. Sixteen of the patients with congenital malformations showed bilateral atlantoaxial lateral offset, a finding generally considered to be the result of fracture. The diagnosis of...
متن کاملMorphometric Study of the Atlas Vertebra using Manual Method.
ABSTRACT The atlas (first cervical vertebra) has undergone many structural modifications. It is critically located and close to the 'life centres'. For this study, one hundred dried intact human atlas vertebrae from the Indian population were measured using a digital Vernier calliper that provides accurate resolution up to 0.01 mm. The distance between the tips of the transverse process, the ou...
