Fracture of the atlas associated with fracture of the odontoid process.

S Esses, F Langer, A Gross.   

Abstract

A case of burst fracture of the atlas associated with a type II fracture of the odontoid is presented. In this instance no atlanto-axial instability was detected clinically. Treatment consisted of 1 week of rest in bed followed by 3 months in a collar. Management, though conservative, resulted in full recovery.
