    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Trauma Care
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Atlanto-occipital dislocation (AOD) is a rare and often fatal injury.
    • Review of existing literature on AOD cases.
    • Presentation of four new cases, highlighting two survivors.

    Observation:

    • Discussion of the pathological anatomy of AOD.
    • Exploration of management strategies for this critical injury.
    • Varied neurological findings in patients with AOD.

    Findings:

    • Development of a novel radiographic criterion for AOD identification.
    • This new criterion aims to facilitate immediate recognition.
    • The criterion is crucial for timely and appropriate treatment.

    Implications:

    • Early radiographic identification can significantly impact patient management.
    • Improved diagnostic tools are essential for catastrophic injuries like AOD.
    • Further research into AOD treatment protocols is warranted.
