AbstractClivus fracture (CF), which is usually reported to accompany with head trauma, has high mortality rates. Early diagnosis of CF is rare because of high mortality rates and inadequate urgent radiologic techniques; however, diagnosis rates are increasing with computed tomography images obtained in high resolution and thin sections. In this article, radiologic and clinical features of 2 patients who were detected to have longitudinal CF after head trauma are presented and accompanying pathologies and its importance for prognosis are discussed under the light of literature data composed of a small number of reports.
