Abstract
-
Klippel-Feil syndrome is characterized by congenital fusion of cervical vertebra which shows classic triad of short neck, low posterior hairline and limited range of motion of the neck. We report a case of Klippel-Feil syndrome not only associated with renal hypoplasia and sensorineural hearing defect but also with repetitive severe hypoglycemia with lactic acidosis.
