title: Technical report: method of fixation of subluxed or dislocated cervical spine below C1-C2.
abstract: A method of internal fixation of adjacent vertebrae that have been dislocated or subluxed has been presented. In the author's hands and in the hands of associates this has proven to be a satisfactory method of fixation in this type of injury. It has the advantage over many other posterior techniques that only two verbebrae are fixed together.
