Description: This medical exhibit shows elements of the fixation and stabilization of a C2 odontoid process fracture (hangman's fracture). It features multiple views of the C2 vertebrae detailing the fractures and their close proximity to the spinal cord. A final image reveals a male figure wearing a halo device bolted into the skull, and a stabilization vest designed to restrain movement while the fracture heals.
