A 17-year-old white male patient sustained a cervical hyperextension injury while body surfing. Plain cervical radiographs, tomography, and CAT scan showed neither fracture nor subluxation, but congenital narrowing of the spinal canal and fusion of C2-C3 (Klippel-Feil). Clinically, he had a central cord syndrome, characterized by a motor dominant myelopathy. The conservative management of this patient with a central cord injury in the presence of spinal stenosis and a Klippel-Feil syndrome resulted in almost full recovery although he was quadriplegic initially. This constellation of findings rarely has been reported in adolescence.
一名17岁的白人男性患者在进行人体冲浪时颈部遭受过伸伤。颈椎X线平片、体层摄影和计算机断层扫描均未显示骨折或半脱位，但发现椎管先天性狭窄以及C2 - C3融合（克利佩尔-费尔综合征）。临床上，他患有中央脊髓综合征，其特征为以运动功能为主的脊髓病。尽管该患者最初为四肢瘫痪，但在存在椎管狭窄和克利佩尔-费尔综合征的情况下，对其中央脊髓损伤进行保守治疗后几乎完全康复。这一系列表现很少在青少年中被报道。
