Irreducible Atlanto-Axial Dislocation in Neglected Odontoid Fracture Treated with Single Stage Anterior Release and Posterior Instrumented Fusion.
It is a well-know fact that type 2 odontoid fractures frequently go into nonunion. If left untreated, patients may develop irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation (AAD). We describe the surgical management of two patients with neglected odontoid fractures and irreducible AAD treated with single stage anterior release followed by posterior instrumented fusion. Both patients presented with history o...
متن کاملSurgical Management of Irreducible Atlantoaxial Dislocation
The classification and treatment of atlantoaxial dislocations (AAD) remains controversial. Despite existing debate among the literature, it is generally accepted that the treatment of symptomatic AAD should be surgical reduction and fixation. More recently, there has also been acknowledgement among treating surgeons that there are substantial differences between irreducible and reducible AAD, w...
متن کاملOne-stage surgical treatment of cervical spine fracture-dislocation in patients with ankylosing spondylitis via the combined anterior–posterior approach
The aim of the article is to investigate the efficacy and safety of 1-stage surgical therapy via combined anterior-posterior approach on cervical spine fracture in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS).We retrospectively analyzed profiles of 12 AS patients with severe fracture-dislocation of cervical spine received 1-stage combined anterior-posterior surgery in our hospital from October, 20...
متن کاملIrreducible posterior subtalar dislocation with incarceration of a fracture of the anterior process of the calcaneum.
Subtalar dislocation is a significant injury characterised by late complications, including subtalar arthritis. We describe a rare case of irreducible posterior subtalar dislocation due to incarceration of a fracture of the anterior process of the calcaneum in the subtalar joint, and discuss appropriate management.
متن کاملTreatment of stiff thoracic scoliosis by thoracoscopic anterior release combined with posterior instrumentation and fusion
BACKGROUND Thoracoscopic anterior release has been shown that it can effectively improve spinal flexibility in animal and human cadaveric studies, and has been advocated for use in patients with scoliosis. This prospective case series aims to investigate the improvement of the spinal flexibility and the effectiveness in deformity correction by anterior thoracoscopic release and posterior spinal...
