Persistence of the midline septum of the odontoid process: anatomical and radiological study

During our screening of the computed tomography (CT) images of the craniocervical junction, we noticed that the odontoid process occasionally contains a highly ossified region in the midline consistent with a bony septum. Given its potential significance, this study aimed to investigate the highly o...

Zusammenfassung:During our screening of the computed tomography (CT) images of the craniocervical junction, we noticed that the odontoid process occasionally contains a highly ossified region in the midline consistent with a bony septum. Given its potential significance, this study aimed to investigate the highly ossified region in the midline of the odontoid process and to discuss its clinical relevance.
