Atlas fractures.
Kakarla UK, Chang SW, Theodore N, Sonntag VK. Kakarla UK, et al. Neurosurgery. 2010 Mar;66(3 Suppl):60-7. doi: 10.1227/01.NEU.0000366108.02499.8F. Neurosurgery. 2010. PMID: 20173529 Review.
Treatment of atlas fractures is based on whether they occur in isolation or in combination with other cervical spine injuries and on the integrity of the transverse ligament, which is best assessed with high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging. Isolated atlas fractures w …
