Abstract:
:Unilateral sagittal split fracture (USSF) of the C1 lateral mass (LM) has been recently recognized as a rare variant of C1 atlas fracture. To date, there has been no study to investigate whether radiologic criteria can be applied to determine the presence or absence of transverse atlantal ligament (TAL) injury in USSF of the C1 LM.Twenty six consecutive cases of USSF of the C1 LM were included in this study. According to Dickman classification, 16 cases were TAL injury, and 10 cases were TAL intact. Radiologic parameters were measured and compared between the 2 groups.Total LM displacement (LMD) of the 2 sides (5.9 ± 2.0 mm vs 1.2 ± 2.0 mm), unilateral LMD of the fracture side (4.3 ± 1.2 mm vs 1.0 ± 1.1 mm), atlanto-dental interval (ADI) (2.0 ± 0.9 mm vs 1.5 ± 0.4 mm), and fracture gap (6.9 ± 2.7 mm vs 2.1 ± 1.1 mm) were statistically higher in the TAL injury group than the TAL intact group. However, basion-dental interval, clivus canal angle, and atlanto-occipital joint axis angle were not different between the 2 groups. Total LMD and unilateral LMD positively correlated with ADI and fracture gap. The incidence of fracture gap larger than 7 mm was statistically higher in the TAL injury group than the TAL intact group (81% vs 30%).In conclusion, total LMD > 5.9 mm or unilateral LMD > 4.3 mm suggests the presence of TAL injury in USSF of the C1 LM. The possibility of diagnostic error for TAL injury can be further reduced in USSF of the C1 LM by considering the fracture gap larger than 7 mm.
