Resumen

De julio de 1989 a septiembre de 1995 han ingresado en nuestra Unidad 26 pacientes afectos de una fractura de la apófisis odontoides tipo II. Veintiuno de estos pacientes han sido intervenidos quirúrgicamente mediante un atornillamiento anterior. Después de un seguimiento medio de 20.9 meses, dieciocho pacientes han logrado una consolidación ósea estable de su fractura, habiéndose incorporado todos ellos a su actividad sociofamiliar y laboral habitual. En este trabajo analizamos los distintos métodos de tratamiento existentes para estas fracturas, así como los criterios seguidos en nuestra Unidad para adoptar el tratamiento de osteosíntesis directa de las mismas.
