[Nonspecific craniovertebral spondylitis].

Active surgical approach is reasonable for nonspecific spondylitis of CVR. Craniocervical fixation eliminates pain and risk of neurological complications following atlantoaxial instability. Conduction disorders require simultaneous transoral decompression and occipitospondylodesis in patients with nonspecific purulent craniovertebral lesions. Impaired head tilt complicates transoral stage. In this regard, it is more rational to carry out craniocervical fixation at the last stage.
