A member asked:
Could it be klippel-feil syndrome? at 12yrs old, learned i have congenital (45degree) cervicothoracic scoliosis w/congenital cervical fusion.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
YES: The fusion of any two cervical verterbrae can be an expression of Klippel-Feil Syndrome and the scoliosis can be due to the effects of the fusion on the normal S shaped curving of the spine....Hope this helps! Dr Z
