Background: The transcondylar approach is being increasingly used to access lesions
ventral to the brain stem and cervicomedullary junction. Understanding the anatomy of the
occipital condyles is important for this approach. Objective: The present work is aimed to
clarify the morphometric data of the occipital condyle and its importance in transcondylar
approach. Materials and methods: The study was performed on 200 occipital condyles of
100 adult human dry skulls of unknown age and sex. Metric and morphological analysis was …
