Abstract
Klippel-Feil Syndrome (KFS) is a rare congenital disorder characterized by the fusion of cervical vertebrae, often associated with other anomalies such as Sprengel's deformity. We report the case of a 61-year-old female patient presenting with chronic neck pain and paresthesia in the lower limbs, worsened after a minor domestic accident. Cervical CT imaging revealed multisegmental vertebral fusion (C2-C3, C7-T1) and Sprengel’s deformity with an omovertebral bone. This case highlights the importance of early diagnosis and comprehensive imaging, including X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs, for the optimal management of KFS and its associated complications. Awaiting the correction before proceeding with the payment.
