Fracture of the Occipital Condyle

Abstract
Fracture of the occipital condyle is a rare injury. We report a patient with an occipital condyle fracture who presented with negative plain films and a cranial nerve palsy. Diagnosis was established with high-resolution computed tomography. This fracture should be considered in a trauma patient with neck pain, negative plain cervical spine radiographs, and a cranial nerve palsy.
