6. MRI measurements:
a. Any degree of atlantoaxial impaction on plain lm radiograph warrants
MRI.
b. Cervicomedullary angle:
(1) E ective indicator of cord distortion.
(2) The angle form ed by lines draw n parallel to the anterior border of the
medulla and upper cervical spinal cord.
(3 ) An gles < 135° h ave be en associated w it h myelopat hy.

2. Synovitis of facet joints, intervertebral disks (spondylodiskitis), and interspinous ligam ent.
3. Osteophytes are rarely observed.
4. Multilevel involvement:
a. Particularly common at C2–C3 and C3–C4 region.
b. Degenerative involvement typically occurs at C5–C6.
5. End plate erosions are present in 12 to 15% of patients.
6. On lateral plain lm radiographs a canal diameter < 14 mm represents a higher risk of neurological involvement and warrants MRI.
7. RA patients with a previous upper cervical fusion have an increased risk of developing subaxial subluxation.

C. Ea rly a g gr ess ive m e d ic a l m a n age m e n t:
1. DMARDs: mechanisms of action in RA are unclear.
a. Methotrexate (MTX).
(1) Inhibits the purine metabolism s, resulting in accum ulation of
adenosine (strong anti-in ammatory e ects).
(2) Inhibits T cell activation and expression of adhesion molecules.
(a) Decreases production of T cell–m ediated in am matory cytokines.
(3) Also inhibits folic acid metabolism .
(a) Patients should consum e folic acid supplem ent during treatm ent.
b. Sulfasalazine.
(1) Associated with increased production of adenosine (similar to MTX).
(2) Free radical scavenger.
(3) Inhibits TNF by inducing macrophage apoptosis.
(4) Appears to suppress B cell function, but not T cells.
c. Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).
(1) Decreases T cell activation by interfering with antigen-presenting
cells.
(a) As a lipophilic weak base, it trespasses the cell m embrane and
accumulates in lysosomes, increasing the intracellular pH.
i. In m acrophages and dendritic cells, the increase of
int racellular pH inhibits antigen coupling w ith antigen­presenting peptides.
(b) HCQ blocks toll-like receptors (TDR) that are responsible for
activating dendritic antigen-presenting cells.
2. Soft cervical collars:
a. Relieve symptoms but do not prevent disease progression.
D. Predictors of postoperative n eu rological recove r y:
1. Ranawat classi cation (Table 25.2).
a. More severe preoperative neurological de cits are associated with a
poorer neurological recovery.
2. Location of disease.
a. Proximal location of the pathology worsens the prognosis.

3. PADI.

(2) In patients with isolated atlantoaxial subluxation with PADI > 10 mm
predicted improvement was at least one Ranawat class.
(3) In com bined atlantoaxial subluxation and impaction recovery was
associated with a PADI ≥ 13 mm.
