Halo traction evaluation of craniocervical instability in hereditary connective tissue disorder patients: Case series
Halo-vest traction proved to be a simple and effective method for evaluating patients for surgery while providing symptomatic relief in EDS-related CCI cases. It allows surgeons to monitor patients with a now post halo stable craniocervical junctions (CCJ) before committing to surgery.
