Abstract Background Transoral atlantoaxial reduction plate (TARP) fixation or occipitocervical fixation (OF) is an effective treatment for basilar invagination (BI) with irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation (IAAD). But, all current clinical studies involved a single surgical procedure. The clinical effects of TARP and OF operation for BI with IAAD have yet to be compared. We therefore present this report to compare the treatment of TARP and OF procedure for BI with IAAD. Methods Fifty-six patients with BI with IAAD who underwent TARP or OF operation from June 2011 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among these, 35 patients underwent TARP operation (TARP group), and 21 patients underwent OF operation (OF group). We compared the difference of clinical, radiological, and surgical outcomes between the TARP and OF groups postoperatively. Results Compared with OF group, the operative time and blood loss in TARP group were lower. There was no statistical difference in the atlantodental interval (ADI), clivus canal angle (CCA), cervicomedullary angle (CMA), distance between the top of the odontoid process and the Chamberlain line (CL) and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score between the TARP and OF groups preoperatively, but the improvements of these parameters in the TARP group were superior to those in the OF group postoperatively. The fusion rates were higher in the TARP group than those in the OF group at the early stage postoperatively. Conclusions TARP and OF operations are effective surgical treatment for BI with IAAD, but the performance of reduction and decompression and earlier bone fusion rates of TARP procedure are superior to those of OF.

Laryngeal Airway

Although laryngeal stenosis caused by cicatricial pemphigoid (CP) is a well documented entity, reports about its surgical treatment are scant. This may be due to the reluctance of the surgeons to excise the scarring, knowing the recurrent nature of the disease. In this paper we report a case of severe laryngeal stenosis caused by CP which necessitated a tracheostomy. When the disease had stabilized, laryngeal airway was restored following open surgical excision and stenting. The historic, clinical, histologic, immunopathologic and therapeutic features of CP are presented with special reference to the laryngeal lesions.
