The authors present 2 cases involving patients who presented with myelopathy. Magnetic resonance imaging of the cervical spine showed spinal cord signal changes on T2-weighted images without any spinal cord compression. Flexion-extension plain radiographs of the spine showed no instability. Dynamic MR imaging of the cervical spine, however, showed spinal cord compression on extension. Compression of the spinal cord was caused by dynamic anulus bulging and ligamentum flavum buckling. This report emphasizes the need for dynamic MR imaging of the cervical spine for evaluating spinal cord changes on neutral position MR imaging before further workup for other causes such as demyelinating disease.

Abstract For the past 20 years, the transoral approach to the upper cervical spine has been utilized for odontoid fractures, the removal of an abnormal odontoid process, decompression of basilar impression, and biopsy or resection of nasopharyngeal or metastatic tumors. The effectiveness and safety of this procedure is well documented. Use of the surgical microscope adds to the efficiency and safety of the procedure. We are reporting a case of fusion of the odontoid base to the anterior arch of the atlas. To our knowledge, this entity has not been described previously. The spinal cord was protected by an initial posterior fusion of C-1, C-2, followed in 10 days by a tracheostomy and the transoral removal of the anterior C-1 arch and the abnormal dens. Because the medical history did not reveal a source of trauma, it is supposed that the patient had malunion of the odontoid process to C-2, with subsequent migration and fusion of the dens to the C-1 arch.
