- Abstract:
- Childhood intervertebral disk calcification is a rare clinical entity and usually has a benign course, generally undergoing spontaneous resolution. However, rapid neurologic deterioration due to herniation, found in both of our cases of calcified cervical intervertebral disks, required urgent anterior discectomy and fusion, resulting in excellent recovery.
