Özet

Clivus is a deep-seated complex formation that provides mechanical support for the brain stem and vascular structures therein (1). Often occurring in high-energy traumas like traffic accidents or falling down from high places, clivus fracture is rare (2) with an incidence rate of 0.55% (3). Because of its anatomical proximity to the vertebrobasilar system, brain stem, and cranial nerves, it can lead to severe neurological deficits and early mortality (4).
