Surgical stabilization of the atlanto-occipital overlap with atlanto-axial instability in a dog.
The atlanto-occipital (AO) overlap in combination with atlanto-axial (AA) instability was found in a dog. We hypothesized that ventral fixation of the AA junction can stabilize the atlas and prevent AO overlap by reviewing our past cases with AA instability. A standard ventral fixation of the AA junction using stainless k-wires and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) was performed. The dog fully recovered, and no complication was noted. The results of the postoperative CT imaging supported our hypothesis. The ventral fixation of the AA junction is a feasible treatment option for similar cases, although craniocervical junction abnormalities (CJA) including AA instability are varied, and careful consideration is required for each case.
期刊介绍:
The Japanese Journal of Veterinary Research (JJVR) quarterly publishes peer-reviewed articles on all aspects of veterinary science. JJVR was originally published as a “University Journal” of veterinary science at Hokkaido University from more than 60 years ago. Currently, JJVR, is Japan’s leading scientific veterinary journal, and provides valuable information for the development of veterinary science by welcoming contributions from researchers worldwide.
JJVR offers online submission for Regular Papers, Short Communications, and Review Articles that are unpublished and not being considered for publication elsewhere. Research areas include:
Anatomy, Physiology, Biochemistry, Pharmacology, Microbiology, Infectious diseases, Parasitology, Laboratory Animal Science and Medicine, Internal Medicine, Surgery, Pathology, Theriogenology, Molecular Medicine, Public Health, Radiation Biology, Toxicology, Wildlife Biology and Medicine, Veterinary Hygiene, The other fields related to veterinary science.
