Abstract

Klippel-Feil`s syndrome is characterized by the congenital fusion of the cervical vertebras, as a result of a lack of segmentation in the embryo axial skeleton. The presence of systemic and skeletal alterations is common. Among the most important are: scapular elevation, scoliosis and renal bad formations. In this report we present the case of a seven-years-old boy with the association of Klippel-Feil, Sprengel´s deformity and chriptorchidism.
