Sprengel's deformity is a conspicuous anomaly, affecting one or both scapulas. The congenital elevation of the scapula is frequently accompanied by additional anomalies, such as rib, vertebral, or muscular deformities, among which are rib fusion or vertebral deformity. Defects in the cervical vertebrae are most likely to result in Klippel-Feil syndrome, which is characterised by a short neck, restrictions on head mobility, and low-growing neck hair. Fewer than half of the instances had scoliosis, which is compensatory due to efforts to straighten the spine. The present case report was the case of Sprengel's deformity reported to our department.
