Reduction of Rheumatoid Periodontoid Pannus Following Posterior Occipito-cervical Fusion Visualised by Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Nine patients (four females and five males) with chronic rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and atlanto-axial (AA) instability subjected to occipito-cervical fusion were evaluated clinically and radiologically. All of them had soft tissue formation (pannus) around the odontoid peg. The age ranged from 50 to...
