Management of Odontoid Fractures in the Elderly
Management of Odontoid Fractures in the Elderly
Neurosurgery 82:419–430, 2018
Odontoid fractures are the most common fracture of the axis and the most common cervical spine fracture in patients over 65. Despite their frequency, there is considerable ambiguity regarding optimal management strategies for these fractures in the elderly. Poor bone health and medical comorbidities contribute to increased surgical risk in this population; however,…

Endoscopic endonasal resection of the odontoid process
Endoscopic endonasal resection of the odontoid process
J Neurosurg 128:923–931, 2018
Treatment of odontoid disease from a ventral corridor has consisted of a transoral approach. More recently, the endoscopic endonasal approach (EEA) has been used to access odontoid pathology.
METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of patients who underwent an EEA for odontoid pathology from 2004 to 2013. During our analysis, the mean follow-up duration was…

Odontoid (dens) fracture, Type III
One of the unstable C-spine fractures. It occurs secondary to an extreme flexion or extension injury such as whiplash in a MVC. The odontoid process, also called the dens, is critical for C2/C1 articulation and allows for the large range of cervical motion our necks exhibit. A type I fracture is an avulsion injury at the tip where the transverse ligament is intact , a type II fracture is a break at the base of the dens and a type III fracture extends into the body of C2 vetebrae Type I and III fractures typically only require a hard collar for 6 weeks. Type II is more unstable and may require a cervical Halo or a pin to keep the odontoid from having worsening displacement.
odontoid
Off all the cases of cervical trauma, about one out of five involves the axis1. The commonest type of the axis injury is an odontoid fracture at the junction of the dens and the body (type II odontoid fracture)2. The C1-2 complex allows far more motion than any other single level in the cervical spine.
This makes me happy in my soul.
