Abstract
BACKGROUND: Bilateral occipital condyle fractures (OCFs) with involvement of the inferior clivus, otherwise known as "avulsion of the anterior foramen magnum," are an exceedingly rare injury with only a few published reports. OBSERVATIONS: A 24-year-old male presented with bilateral OCFs with involvement of the clivus after a motor vehicle accident. The patient had no neurological deficits and was successfully managed nonoperatively using a halo vest. The authors used a traction test to guide the duration of nonoperative care. The operative and nonoperative management of this rare injury is discussed with respect to other cases in the literature. LESSONS: External immobilization through a halo vest is an effective treatment option for bilateral OCFs with clivus involvement. The traction test can be used, along with computed tomography, to guide the duration of treatment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
