Objective: To report the outcomes of transoral C2 osteotomy (or partial odontoidectomy) and posterior fixation, regarding efficacy and safety, in patients with severe irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation (IAAD) following odontoid fracture.
Methods: Transoral C2 osteotomy, soft tissue resection, with or without facet joint release, followed by posterior fixation were performed on 3 patients (2012, 2016, 2023) who were suffering from severe IAAD after an odontoid fracture with spinal cord compression. The radiological and clinical outcomes were then assessed.

To review the outcomes of patients who underwent repeated vertebroplasty (VP) surgery for adjacent segment fractures (ASF), defined as new osteoporotic vertebral fractures occurring at levels immediately above or below a previously treated vertebra. From 1 January 2018, to 31 December 2020, forty-one patients who developed ASF following initial VP and underwent repeated VP were enrolled in our study. Radiographic measurements included single and two-segment kyphotic angles (SKA and TKA), and anterior and mid-vertebral body height (AVH and MVH).

Purpose: Plentiful evidence points to a significant correlation between paravertebral muscles and spinal diseases. Yet, no reports are available detailing the association between paravertebral muscle status and diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH). The purpose of this retrospective study was to assess the link between paravertebral muscle area as well as fat infiltration and DISH based on computer tomography.

Introduction: Fracture liaison services (FLS), often staffed by radiographers, identify and treat patients over the age of 50 at high risk of future fractures by intervening after the first fracture. Vertebral fragility fractures (VFF) are particularly disabling and are highly predictive of future fracture but are underdiagnosed as they often do not come to clinical attention. To review the behaviour traits of patient with opportunistically identified VFF's (OIVFF), local FLS data can be used to compare outcomes of OIVFF's with acute VFF's (AVFF) and non-hip/spine fragility fractures (NHSFF).
