Lateral (A) flexion and (B) extension views of the cervical spine taken at the 1-year followup reveal a healed posterior arch of the C1 fracture. The atlantodens interval is preserved, confirming stability at C1-C2 on flexion and extension. A minimal degree of flexion-extension is evident by the interval between the skull and the posterior arch of C1.
