Abstract EN
We presented a very rare case of adult Fielding type I atlantoaxial rotatory fixation (AARF).
We performed awake manual reduction of the dislocation without need for anesthesia, achieving excellent outcomes, and no previous reports have described awake reduction without the need for anesthesia.
AARF in this case was attributed to excessive extension and rotation forces applied to the cervical spine.
For the management of adult Fielding type I AARF, early diagnosis and early reduction may lead to excellent outcomes.
