Case for transoral decompression of craniovertebral junction and C1 and odontoid for fixed atlanto axial dislocation and basilar invagination

Transoral decompression of the craniovertebral junction is an established and safe method. Lateral atlanto-axial joints may be distracted and then fused posteriorly in some cases. The decision should be individualized based on the imaging and clinical picture.
