Abstract
|
|
|
|
Occipital condyle syndrome(OCS) consists of unilateral pain on occipital region and ipsilateral hypoglossal nerve palsy. OCS should be distinguished from hypoglossal nerve palsy without pain, because it could be due to metastasis of cancer to skull base. We experienced 2 patients with OCS, 74 year old man caused by metastasis of hepatocelluar carcinoma and 53 year old woman with sigmoid colon cancer.
