Popis: Background This paper aims to present clinical and radiological results of patients who underwent anterior odontoid screw fixation (AOSF). Methods In this study, 19 consecutive patients with an unstable odontoid fracture were operated on using an Acutrak screw. Results The patients were followed for a mean duration of 12.5 months. Radiological fusion on CT scans was detected in 87.5% of the patients. Conclusion Acutrak screws can be used for AOSF. This study contains the maximum number of patients using the Acutrak screw in the literature. However, larger prospective clinical studies can provide more accurate information about the effectiveness of the Acutrak screws for odontoid fractures.
