Controversies in neurosurgery: Irreducible basilar invagination and atlanto-axial dislocation: A trans-oral procedure may be avoided in a majority, but still may be required in some cases
Basilar invagination (BI) and atlanto-axial dislocation (AAD) are mostly irreducible in nature and are quite complex pathologies to manage. Traditionally they required a trans-oral excision of odontoid process followed by a posterior instrumented fusion. This has been challenged recently, where a si...
