The anatomy, clinical presentation, radiologic evaluation, treatment, and outcome of occipital condyle fractures are reviewed.
We review and discuss the literature on occipital condyle fractures.
Occipital condyle fractures are best diagnosed with computed tomography. The neurologic presentation is variable. The majority of these injuries may be treated nonoperatively, but an occipitocervical fusion is necessary to restore stability across the craniovertebral junction.
Occipital condyle fractures are a rare but serious injury that requires prompt diagnosis and treatment.
回顾枕骨髁骨折的解剖结构、临床表现、影像学评估、治疗方法和结果。
我们复习并讨论了有关枕骨髁骨折的文献。
计算机断层扫描(CT)是诊断枕骨髁骨折的最佳方法。神经学表现存在差异。这些损伤大多数可以非手术治疗,但需要进行枕颈融合以恢复颅颈交界区的稳定性。
枕骨髁骨折是一种罕见但严重的损伤,需要及时诊断和治疗。
