Popis: Anomalies of the cervical spine are rare and often are undetected. The anomalies can be life threatening, so it is important to be vigilant. The classic triad of low hairline, webbed neck, and limited cervical motion is the presentation of a variety of cervical spine anomalies. Many anomalies are difficult to detect because of apparently normal cervical spine motion. A multidisciplinary approach is essential for optimal surgical management. Multicenter studies are required to determine optimal treatment for os odontoideum and basilar invagination.
