Abstract
Klippel-Feil Syndrome (KFS) is defined as a congenital fusion of two or more cervical vertebrae. The most common signs are short neck, low hairline at the back of the head, and restricted mobility of neck. I report on a one year-old Saudi female who presented for a routine one-year vaccination and was later diagnosed with a case of KFS.
