Congenital C1-2 Lateral Translational Dislocation: Case Illustration with Pre- and Postoperative Imaging

Abstract: Background: Congenital atlantoaxial dislocation has been commonly described in the antero-posterior or vertical plane (basilar invagination). However, dislocation in the lateral translational plane due to congenital deformity is rare. Case Report: We present a case of a young male who presented with os odontoideum with C1-2 dislocation in the lateral plane along with antero-posterior dislocation. He was operated on through a midline posterior incision, and the C1-2 facet was manipulated so as to correct the di… Show more

“…Violent trauma, hyperextension, or distraction injury can cause traumatic TAAS [ 52 , 67 , 82 ]. Nontraumatic cases can also arise from inflammation, facet tropism, spinal tumors, or congenital disorders including spinal fusion, Down syndrome and skeletal dysplasias [ 1 , 52 , 62 , 86 ]. Clinical presentation is diverse, from minor neck pain to myelopathy due to cord compression or cerebellar/occipital lobe infarction due to vertebral artery stenosis [ 8 , 32 , 89 ].…”
