Neck pain

42 y/o male with history of squamous cell carcinoma now with neck pain. CT cervical spine coronal reconstruction demonstrates a pathologic spondylolisthesis of C1 on C2, such that the occipital condyle is resting on the axis.

It would be nice to have more images. You call this spondylolisthesis (translational movement indicating instability). Given that the lateral masses of C2, C1, and the condyles are aligned, it looks more like a subsidence due to a pathologic ring fracture at C1.
