Occipital Condyle Fractures: Clinical Presentation and Imaging Findings in 76 Patients. Aulino J, Tutt L, Kaye J, Smith P, Morris J. Imaging of Atlanto-Occipital and Atlantoaxial Traumatic Injuries: What the Radiologist Needs to Know. Riascos R, Bonfante E, Cotes C, Guirguis M, Hakimelahi R, West C. Radiologic and Clinical Spectrum of Occipital Condyle Fractures. It is comprised of many bones, formed by intramembranous. The gold standard for the radiographic detection of skull base fractures is non. The skull is a bony structure that supports the face and forms a protective cavity for the brain. The preponderance of OCV fractures occur as the result of longitudinal fractures, largely because of the much higher overall frequency of the latter. 6: Simple linear occipital bone fracture. doi:10.1148/radiology.216.3.r00se23635 - Pubmed OCV fractures represent a small fraction of total temporal bone fractures but have highly significant associations with major complications.
Leone A, Cerase A, Colosimo C, Lauro L, Puca A, Marano P. The Forgotten Condyle: The Appearance, Morphology, and Classification of Occipital Condyle Fractures. The occipital bone forms the posterior aspect of the skull and posterior floor of the cranial cavity. Morphology and Treatment of Occipital Condyle Fractures. Tuli classification of occipital condyle fractures.Montesano on the basis of 6 patients diagnosed by conventional anterior posterior polytomography or CT with coronal reconstructions 1. The classification was described in 1988 by American orthopedic surgeons Paul A. The lateral skull film seemed to show an occipital skull fracture (Figure 1), and the results of computed tomography of the head showed a single defect in. stability: potentially unstable due to loading of the contralateral alar ligament and tectorial membraneĪ range of incidences of the Anderson and Montesano types amongst all occipital condyle fractures has been reported 2,4,6:.mechanism: rotation and/or contralateral bending.It is divided into anterior, central, and posterior regions, which form the floor of the anterior, middle, and posterior cranial fossae. morphology: small inferomedial occipital condyle fracture fragment displaced toward the odontoid tip The skull base is made up of 7 bones, the paired frontal and temporal bones, and the unpaired ethmoid, sphenoid, and occipital bones.type III: avulsion type occipital condyle fracture.stability: stable because the tectorial membrane and alar ligaments are intact.mechanism: direct blow to the lower skull.morphology: condyle fracture that extends outside of the condyle to elsewhere in the posterior base of skull.type II: basilar skull type occipital condyle fracture.stability: stable because the tectorial membrane and contralateral alar ligament are intact (the ipsilateral alar ligament may be functionally inadequate).mechanism: axial loading of the skull onto the atlas.morphology: comminution of the condyle with minimal or no displacement of fragments into the foramen magnum.type I: impacted type occipital condyle fracture.
