Abstract:

Klippel-Feil syndrome is a congenital malformation that exists because of a failure of the normal segmentation of cervical somites during the third and eighth weeks of gestation. The classical triad includes short neck, low hair line, restriction in neck motion, and fusion of at least two cervical segments. Patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome usually present with the disease during childhood but may present later in life.
