Abstract

Klippel-Feil syndrome or congenital short neck is a rare malformation in which there is congenital fusion of two or more vertebrae in the cervical region. In some patients it is associated with other congenital malformations in the skeleton, lung and heart. Two cases of Klippel-Feil syndrome in children who also had cardiovascular malformations are described and the literature is reviewed.
