A Consultation for Pediatric Neck Mass Resulting in a Rare Diagnosis of Klippel-Feil Syndrome: A Case Report.

Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is a rare congenital cervical vertebrae fusion syndrome characterized by the clinical triad of low posterior hairline, limited head and neck range of motion, and short neck. The gene defects described with this syndrome are involved in the maturation and differentiation of bone during embryological development. As such, related defects seen in patients with KFS include genitourinary anomalies, cardiac defects, neurological abnormalities, and other musculoskeletal anomalies.
