BACKGROUND Klippel-Trenaunay syndrome, a congenital disorder, is characterized by capillary malformation, varicosities and bony or soft tissue hypertrophy. Since there is no cure for this disorder, treatment is directed towards secondary prevention of venous hypertension and preservation of functional integrity of the legs. Elastic stockings are the mainstay of treatment and are indicated in al...

Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS) is characterized by the failure in segmentation of two or more vertebrae due to an abnormal division of the mesodermal somites and has been reported to be associated with cardiac and central nervous system anomalies. We report a rare occurrence of concurrent Klippel-Feil anomaly, tethering and dermoid cyst of dorsal spine masquerading Potts’ disease in an eighteen ye...

A man with Klippel-Feil deformity, unilateral renal agenesis, and azoospermia is presented as a possible case of MURCS.

Port-wine stain is a vascular malformation characterized pathologically by ectasia of superficial dermal capillaris and clinically by persistent macular erythema. The association of a port-wine stain on a limb with soft tissue swelling, with or without bony overgrowth, is termed klippel-Trenaunay syndrome. Phakomatosis pigmento-vascularis is a combination of port-wine stain and cutaneous ...

introduction: klippel feil syndrome (kfs) is a rare entity which is characterized by failure of normal segmentation of cervical vertebrae resulting in short neck with restricted movement and cervical instability. this anomaly increases the risk of neurological damage during airway instrumentation like laryngoscopy and positioning for surgery. case rports: we report three patients, a 42 year old...

[Purpose] This study aimed to identify the effects of cervical deep muscle strengthening (CDS) on neck pain in a patient with Klippel-Feil syndrome (KFS). [Subjects and Methods] The subjects was a 39 year-old woman with neck pain and KFS that included incomplete block vertebrae in the C2-3 segments and block vertebrae in the C6-7 segments. The subject performed an exercise program including cer...
