Cervical spine radiography revealed calcification in the cervical intervertebral disk 3-4.Discussion: Pediatric idiopathic intervertebral disk calcification is a benign, rare condition that might be complicated by associated severe neurological symptoms. In this case, the symptoms gradually subsided with conservative management alone. |
