STUDY DESIGN: Case report of spontaneous Fielding and Hawkins Type I atlantoaxial rotatory fixation in a 78-year-old man after hemiplegia and homonymous hemianopsia caused by cerebral infarction.

OBJECTIVES: To describe a case of spontaneous atlantoaxial rotatory fixation in old age and review previous adult cases of atlantoaxial rotatory fixation without fracture.

SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Atlantoaxial rotatory fixation in adults is a relatively rare finding and is mainly caused by trauma. To the author's knowledge, there has been no previous report of spontaneous atlantoaxial rotatory fixation in old age.

METHODS: The patient's head was fixed in a 40 degrees left-rotated position. Left hemiplegia and homonymous left-side hemianopsia developed due to cerebral infarction. Computed tomography of the cervical spine clearly showed rotatory fixation of the atlas on the axis.

RESULTS: Successful reduction was obtained after 1 day of skull traction.

CONCLUSIONS: It was hypothesized that repeated left-rotational stress due to homonymous hemianopsia loaded to the atlantoaxial joint caused abnormal laxity of the joint.
