How people recover after an odontoid neck fracture
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how people recover from a specific kind of neck fracture (odontoid fracture). If you had this injury and are at least 2 years out, you could help researchers understand what recovery looks like and what treatments work best.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Had a fracture of the odontoid, which is a small bone at the top of your neck just behind your throat.
- You must be willing to let researchers see your medical records from the time of the injury.
- You must be able to come back for a follow-up visit at least 2 years after your injury.
- You are willing to take part and give your permission for the study.
