- Abstract: This study was aimed to investigate the clinical effect of atlantoaxial subluxation with the combination of the muscle tendon manipulation and the modified small angle sagittal pull and conventional Tuina therapy.A total of 80 atlantoaxial subluxation cases were randomly divided into two groups.The cure rate,rate of improvement,imaging and Xray space difference between two groups were observed and analyzed statistically.The results showed that the cure rate was 70.00% in the treatment group,and 42.50% in the control group;the total efficiency rate was 97.472% in the treatment group,and 82.50% in the control group.There was significant difference between two groups by x2 test.The image of atlanto odontoid anterior space and the side gap difference were significant before and after treatment (P < 0.05).It was concluded that treatment of atlantoaxial subluxation with the combination of the muscle tendon manipulation and the modified small angle sagittal pull achieved better effect compared to the conventional Tuina therapy.This method should be further promoted in the clinical practice.
