Abstract
A case [in man] of traumatic atlantooccipital dislocation was presented and the literature reviewed. This type of traumatic dislocation is probably produced by violent hyperextension of the upper cervical spine. Cranial nerve injuries and spinal cord injuries are common. Early fusion was recommended.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
