Multilevel cervical disconnection syndrome (MCDS) is a rare malformation of the cervical spine previously documented in two toddlers. We present a case of a newborn first thought to have hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy who was subsequently diagnosed with MCDS. The possibility of in utero presentation of the syndrome in this patient and the categorization of this syndrome in the spectrum of basilar skull/upper cervical malformation syndromes is discussed.
多级颈段离断综合征(MCDS)是一种罕见的颈椎畸形,此前仅在两名幼儿中被记录。我们报告一例最初被认为患有缺氧缺血性脑病的新生儿,随后被诊断为MCDS。本文讨论了该综合征在该患者子宫内出现的可能性,以及该综合征在基底颅骨/上颈椎畸形综合征谱系中的分类。
