  • Title: Traumatic atlanto-occipital dislocation: a case report.
    Author: Munoz-Mahamud E, Combalia A, Bori G.
    Journal: J Orthop Surg (Hong Kong); 2012 Dec; 20(3):391-4. PubMed ID: 23255654.
    Abstract:
    We report a 30-year-old man with atlanto-occipital dislocation after a traffic accident. Diagnosis was based on radiography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. Owing to the critical conditions that did not fulfil advanced trauma and life support protocols, surgical treatment was deferred, and the patient died 10 hours later.
