Klippel-Feil syndrome is a rare, congenital disorder that affects the spine. Major symptoms may include a short neck, low hairline at the back of the head and restricted mobility of the upper spine. There may also be hearing loss and neurologic, cardiac, renal, and respiratory problems.
The Circle of Friends is a group of people who have been affected in some way by KFS. Whether we have KFS, or are related to someone who does, we know that resources and support are important.
Our Circle has information, experience and friendly smiles.
