DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2018.08.016
Abstract: OBJECTIVE Unfamiliarity with the morphometry of the assimilated C1 lateral mass (C1LM) could make screw placement dangerous. In the present study, we defined the morphometric dimensions of the occipitalized C1LM to provide surgeons with valuable… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2019.02.081
Abstract: INTRODUCTION Surgical intervention at the craniovertebral junction (CVJ) requires pre-operative and intra-operative planning to get optimum postoperative results. Careful positioning minimizes the risk of iatrogenic injury and can also facilitate adequate surgical exposure. Tortuous venous… read more here.
