The authors describe a new technique for treatment fractures of the dens. An anterior approach (technique of Boehler) is used. It provides for one-stage fusion and no additional disturbance of C1-C2 rotation. Under AP and lateral guidance the body of C2 is drilled medially, and so are the site of fracture. Then comes the gradual impaction of a conical implant of biocompatible resorbable implant [*], tip cephalad. The biopolymer is used for grafting purposes in all type of fractures of the odontoid process, which permits the latter to be fused without using screws or any other metal implant.
