Atlanto-Axial Dislocation: Treatment & Surgery | Dr. Komal Prasad C

Atlanto-Axial Dislocation (AAD) is a condition where there is a misalignment of the Craniocervical Junction, which can lead to serious neurological symptoms. This can occur due to trauma or injury, like in the case of a 12-year-old girl who experienced weakness in her hands and legs after a fall while riding her bicycle. Though the girl seemed fine initially, she had a noticeable tilt in her neck, which raised concern. After an MRI scan, it was found that the bones of the Craniocervical Junction were out of alignment, which led to her symptoms. Atlanto-Axial Dislocation can lead to significant neurological issues if not treated promptly. In this case, the girl underwent craniocervical re-alignment surgery, a procedure to correct the misalignment and restore proper functioning. This treatment aims to prevent further neurological damage and improve the patient's quality of life. Dr. Komal Prasad C, Senior Consultant - Neurosurgery at Narayana Health City, Bangalore, explains the importance of timely diagnosis and treatment for Atlanto-Axial Dislocation. This condition, although rare, requires immediate attention to avoid long-term consequences. Proper imaging, like MRI scans, are crucial for diagnosing spinal malposition in children after trauma. If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms such as neck tilt, weakness in the limbs, or other neurological signs, it is essential to consult a specialist promptly. Early intervention can prevent complications and improve recovery outcomes.
