Abstract:
PURPOSE:Because of the complex cervical vertebral embryology and some normal variations, the atlantoadental interval (ADI) was not suitable for the evaluation of the anatomic relationship between the atlas and axial in children less than 2 years old. And the influence of the age and gender on the anatomic relationship between atlas and axial in children was still unclear. Two novel parameters, atlas-axis anteroposterior distance (AAAD) and atlas-axis lateral distance (AALD), were invented to evaluate the anatomic relationship between the atlas and axis in the children no more than 8 years old with different age and gender. METHODS:Cross-sectional computed tomography (CT) scans of the atlantoaxial joint for 140 randomly selected pediatric patients no more than 8 years old were analyzed. On the ideal CT reconstruction images, AAAD, AALD, atlantoaxial lateral bending angle (AALB), and atlantoaxial rotation angle (AARA) were measured. RESULTS:There was no statistically significant difference between the mean AAAD in different age and gender groups. The 99% confidence interval for AAAD was 7.12-7.82 mm. There was no significant correlation between AAAD and AALB/AARA and AALD and AALB/AARA. CONCLUSION:The AAAD was less than 7.12 mm or much than 7.82 mm that suggested a possible instability in the atlantoaxial joint and could help the diagnosis of the atlantoaxial instability in children no more than 8 years old. There was no difference between the mean AAAD of pediatric patients no more than 8 years old in different age and gender groups.
