Klippel–Feil Syndrome A Case Report

Öz

Klippel-Feil syndrome is a condition characterized by fusion of the spine owing to the failure of normal segmentation of the cervical structures. In this case report, we aimed to describe this rare syndrome, show the findings of this syndrome using imaging techniques, and demonstrate its clinical importance. A 41-year-old female patient presented to our faculty hospital with neck pain. Using cervical magnetic resonance imaging, we observed a decreased anteroposterior diameter; fusion between the corpora of the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th cervical spine; and an appearance consistent with fusion between the arches of the same vertebrae in sagittal slices. Cadaver studies and radiology tests were performed to identify the variations and anomalies of the cervical spine. Although computed tomography scanning is more frequently performed for the purpose of evaluating spine, magnetic resonance imaging may be performed to evaluate the adjacent soft tissue structures and the symptoms associated with vertebral pathologies. These imaging modalities are necessary and beneficial for anatomists, radiologists, neurosurgeons, and orthopedists so that they may evaluate the findings, coexisting anomalies, and risk factors of Klippel-Feil syndrome in order to reach appropriate diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment.
