Abstract

This interesting case shows an association, not previously described in literature, between Klippel-Feil and Dandy-Walker syndromes. Klippel-Feil syndrome consists of a segmentation defect of the fetal spine, although the most common defect regards the cervical spines. The above syndrome is usually associated to other anomalies affecting skeletal, urogenital, cardiac and neurologic systems. The present case highlights an unusual association between tipe III Klippel-Feil Syndrome, Dandy-Walker variant malformation and spina bifida.
