Area of Science:

  • Neurosurgery
  • Minimally Invasive Spine Surgery

Background:

  • Odontoidectomy treats ventral craniovertebral junction pathologies.
  • Traditional transoral approaches have limitations, including surgical corridor depth and soft tissue injury risks.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a case study on endoscopic endonasal (EE) odontoidectomy.
  • To highlight the advantages of the EE approach over traditional methods.

Main Methods:

  • A 66-year-old male with progressive quadriparesis underwent EE odontoidectomy and posterior cervical fusion.
  • Diagnostic imaging included MRI and CT scans of the craniovertebral junction.
  • Histopathological examination identified a degenerated disk as the cause of the pannus.

Main Results:

  • The patient experienced a full recovery from myelopathy within 6 months post-surgery.
  • The EE approach successfully addressed severe spinal cord compression.
  • No significant postoperative complications were reported.

Conclusions:

  • Endoscopic endonasal odontoidectomy is a safe and effective alternative for treating craniovertebral junction pathologies.
  • The EE approach mitigates risks associated with transoral surgery, such as velopharyngeal insufficiency and dysphagia.
  • This technique offers significant benefits for patients requiring odontoidectomy.
