Zusammenfassung:•The clival fracture is an infrequent pathology.•The least common subtype is the transverse one which has the highest mortality rate.•The fracture displacement is extremely rare.•Their treatment is poorly defined because of the paucity of cases.•We described one case treated by occipitocervical fusion C0-C3 with excellent outcome at six months (Modified Rankin Scale 0).
