Horizontal fractures of the atlas are uncommon fractures associated with instability of the craniocervical junction. Most commonly associated with high-speed motor vehicle accidents, these fractures need to be identified and treated appropriately. Due to its relatively benign presentation on bony imaging, magnetic resonance imaging to look for ligamentous instability is important. We present two such cases which were managed by occipitocervical fusion at our institute.
寰椎水平骨折是与颅颈交界区不稳定相关的罕见骨折。这些骨折最常与高速机动车事故有关,需要进行正确的识别和治疗。由于其在骨质影像上表现相对不严重,因此通过磁共振成像来检查韧带是否不稳定很重要。我们在此介绍两例在我院通过枕颈融合术治疗的此类病例。
