Protocol patient with C6/7 dislocation and right-side facet interlocking. (A) At presentation, sagittal position CT indicates C6/7 dislocation, and a small bone fragment presents at the posterior margin of the vertebral body of C6. (B) Horizontal position CT reveals a small bone fragment presents at the posterior margin of the vertebral body of C6. (C) Sagittal position MRI reveals C6/7 dislocation, disc herniation and compression of the spinal cord. (D) Stereoscopic reconstructed CT reveals C6/7 dislocation and facet interlocking at the right-side of C6. (E) Intraoperative C-arm fluoroscopic visualization. (F) Operative incision. (G) The anteroposterior and lateral view of cervical spine radiography after surgery. (H) Two weeks after the surgery, the MRI indicates the cervical sequence and stability was reconstructed, and the compression of the spinal cord was released completely. (I) Three months after the surgery, the reconstructed CT reveals complete postoperative realignment and fusion was achieved.
