Klippel-Feil syndrome (KPS) is characterized by congenital vertebral fusion believed to result from faulty segmentation along the embryo's developing axis. The hallmark phenotypic findings of low hairline, short neck, and limited range of motion of the neck are found as al triad in < 50% of patients. Congenital musculoskeletal and systemic anomalies are commonly found. These include, but are not limited to elevation of the scapula, scoliosis and renal and cardiac abnormalities. Here, we present the three-dimensional images by computed tomography of a 9-year-old boy with multiple fusion of the cervical vertebraes.
克-费综合征(KPS)的特征是先天性椎体融合,据信这是由于胚胎发育轴上的节段划分错误所致。低发际线、短颈和颈部活动范围受限这一标志性表型特征在不到50%的患者中呈三联征出现。常见先天性肌肉骨骼和全身异常。这些异常包括但不限于肩胛骨抬高、脊柱侧弯以及肾脏和心脏异常。在此,我们展示一名9岁颈椎多处融合男孩的计算机断层扫描三维图像。
