Abstract:
An inferior accessory ossicle of the anterior arch of the atlas is quite rare and should not be confused with other pathological conditions such as a fracture. Here we report a case of an inferior accessory ossicle of the anterior arch of the atlas in a 29-year-old male and a review of literature.
