  • Title: Cervical neuroschisis and meningocoele manque in type I (no neck) Klippel-Feil syndrome.
    Author: Cochrane DD, Haslam RH, Myles ST.
    Journal: Pediatr Neurosurg; ; 16(3):174-8. PubMed ID: 2134011.
    Abstract:
    A male child with type I (no neck) Klippel-Feil syndrome presented at birth with a transient and partial cord injury. Investigations failed to reveal spinal instability or foramen magnum compression. Subsequent deterioration led to investigations that demonstrated neuroschisis. A cervical meningocoele manque with cord tethering was found at exploration and untethering reversed the deficit. The surgical pathology of the cervical cord is described.
