Abstract
Inflammatory conditions at the craniocervical junction (CCJ) consist mainly of rheumatic diseases and spondyloarthropathies, with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) representing the predominant example of the former condition. Secondary atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS) is noted in up to 70% of cases of RA, yet neurologic manifestations are not common. Atlantoaxial impaction (AAI) however, a less frequent entity, is associated with potentially grave deficits. All of the seronegative spondyloarthropathies may also have abnormalities at the CCJ. Erosive
