Identification and management of high-risk patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome.

M G Nagib, R E Maxwell, S N Chou.   

Abstract

Patients with Klippel-Feil syndrome are often at high risk for neurological injury. The cervicomedullary junction and cervical spinal cord are especially vulnerable. Twenty-one patients examined and treated over a 20-year period are reviewed. The salient features of the syndrome are identified, and an approach to management is proposed.
