  • Title: [Traumatic atlanto-axial dislocation. (About two cases with late clinical manifestations) (author's transl)].
    Author: Brunon J, Robin M, Mansuy L.
    Journal: Neurochirurgie; 1978; 24(5):337-42. PubMed ID: 740122.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of atlanto axial dislocation with late neurological manifestations are reported and the very few cases of the literature are reviewed. The clinical signs are non specific. Excellent lateral tomography must demonstrate the abnormal space between atlas and axis. Surgical treatment includes bone fusion after reduction of the dislocation by cautious skull-traction. The results are excellent if the operation is performed before the onset of severe neurological deficits.
