Ring fractures of the skull base are rare and have hitherto been regarded as invariably fatal injuries. They are difficult to diagnose, as routine radiographs of the head and spine are usually normal. Increasing use of computerized tomography in the evaluation of head and neck injuries may, however, lead to an increased frequency of diagnosis of this injury. We present a case of such a fracture where the patient survived with a generally good neurological recovery.
颅底环形骨折较为罕见，迄今为止一直被视为必然致命的损伤。此类骨折难以诊断，因为头部和脊柱的常规X光片通常显示正常。然而，在头颈部损伤评估中越来越多地使用计算机断层扫描，可能会使这种损伤的诊断频率增加。我们报告一例这样的骨折病例，该患者存活下来，神经功能总体恢复良好。
