Abstract :Occipital condyle and clivus fractures caused by trauma are rare lesions that are difficult to diagnose. Only a few publications have reported cases involving both fractures. With the widespread use of high-resolution computed tomography in recent years, the diagnosis of these fractures has become more feasible; however, their clinical presentation and treatment approach remain uncertain for clinicians. The concurrent occurrence of occipital condyle and clivus fractures has recently been incorporated into the Anderson and Montesano classification system for occipital condyle fractures. In this paper, we aim to discuss the clinical presentation and treatment strategies of a 39-year-old female patient who was brought to our hospital with bilateral occipital condyle and transverse clivus fractures following a pedestrian traffic accident, in light of the existing literature.
