Wegener’s Disease Presenting with Occipital Condyle Syndrome
Tumors or chronic inflammatory lesions of the occipital condyle may cause occipital pain associated with an ipsilateral hypoglossal nerve injury (occipital condyle syndrome). We describe a young woman with recurrent otitis media and occipital condyle syndrome associated with a limited form of Wegener's disease.

RECOMMENDATIONS DIAGNOSTIC: Standards: There is insufficient evidence to support diagnostic standards. Guidelines: Computed tomographic imaging is recommended for establishing the diagnosis of occipital condyle fractures. Clinical suspicion should be raised by the presence of one or more of the following criteria: blunt trauma patients sustaining high-energy craniocervical injuries, altered con...

متن کاملOccipital condyle syndrome as the first sign of metastatic cancer.
BACKGROUND Occipital condyle syndrome is characterized by severe, unilateral, occipital headache and ipsilateral twelfth-nerve palsy. It is associated with skull-base metastasis. CASES We identified two patients with sub-acute onset of severe, unilateral, occipital headache and ipsilateral tongue paralysis. The first patient was a 58-year-old woman with a history of limited stage small-cell l...
متن کاملOccipital condyle syndrome guiding diagnosis to metastatic prostate cancer.
Occipital condyle syndrome (OCS) results from a unilateral occipital pain associated with an ipsilateral paresis of the 12th cranial nerve (hypoglossal), and is typically caused by metastasis of the skull base. OCS diagnosis occurred, in all cases described in the published literature, when metastatic prostate cancer (MPC) was previously known. We present a case of a patient whose initial manif...
