Minimally invasive spine fusion for neck dislocation
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This trial tests a less invasive surgery to fix a specific type of neck bone dislocation (atlantoaxial dislocation). It may help patients who need surgery on the upper spine heal faster with smaller incisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 0 and 80 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with atlantoaxial dislocation and are a candidate for surgery from the back of the neck.
- You are able to have your health status checked before the procedure.
- You agree to join the study and sign a consent form.
- You have not had other types of surgery for this condition, like the TARP procedure.

This trial aims to find the best ways to diagnose and treat a specific type of neck bone problem called atlantoaxial dislocation. It is for people who have this condition and are having surgery.
This study compares conservative (non-surgical) treatment to surgery for patients with atlantoaxial dislocation (a neck joint problem) who do not have any nerve-related symptoms. You can choose which treatment to start with, and this will help doctors learn which option works best.
This study looks at surgical treatment for a specific type of neck bone dislocation that cannot be corrected without surgery. It may help patients whose imaging and traction testing show they need an operation to stabilize the neck.
This trial studies specific surgical hardware used to stabilize the back of the neck and upper back during spine surgery. It may help surgeons compare outcomes for people needing fixation for trauma, instability, failed prior fusion, tumors, or certain degenerative conditions.
This trial looks at using a specific implant system during planned front-of-the-neck surgery (C2 to C7) for common neck problems like disc degeneration, injury, or spinal narrowing. It may help doctors compare outcomes with this particular hardware and surgical approach.
This trial looks at how well minimally invasive back surgery works for adults with long-lasting spine deformities (like bending or uneven alignment). It aims to measure outcomes using questionnaires and spine X-ray measurements after treatment.
