  • Title: Fractures of the second cervical vertebra: Internal fixation by interlaminar wiring.
    Author: Salmon JH.
    Journal: Neurosurgery; 1977; 1(2):125-7. PubMed ID: 615961.
    Abstract:
    Fractures of the 2nd cervical vertebra are frequently undetected on initial evaluation. Tomography may be necessary to delineate the fracture. This is a report of 20 patients treated by internal fixation using interlaminar wiring. There was no operative mortality. Follow-up studies, an average of 25 months after operation, demonstrated satisfactory results and no evidence of delayed neurological deficit.
