Popis: | A 17-year-old male presented with progressive spastic quadriparesis and torticollis over four years. Investigations revealed unilateral enlargement of the facet of the atlas. Surgical resection of the indenting part of the facet resulted in an immediate and lasting relief from the presenting symptoms. |
