Crowned dens syndrome (CDS) is a relatively uncommon presentation of calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) deposition disease that manifests as acute attacks of neck pain with fever, neck rigidity and elevated inflammatory markers related to radiodense deposits of CPPD in ligaments around the odontoid process. We present a case of CDS.
