Abstract In small childrens spine injuries are rare. In this age group upper cervical spine is commonally affected. Odontoid process fracture involve only a subset of cervical spine fractures. In small childrens, this fracture typically involves the cartilaginousplate that separates the odontoid process from the body of the axis. Odontoid processfracture is rare in children less than 7 years of age.

✓ The authors present their experience with surgical treatment of odontoid process fractures using a direct screw fixation technique via an anterolateral retropharyngeal approach. Nine consecutive patients have been operated on with this technique. There were two deaths unrelated to the surgery, and anatomical union with conservation of the craniospinal hinge mobility was achieved in the remaining seven patients. The direct screw fixation technique appears feasible, efficient, and logical.
