COMPARATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF CRANIOVERTEBRAL ABNORMALITIES. LITERATURE REVIEW
Abstract
The article presents a literary review of some congenital anomalies of the craniovertebral junction, the frequency of which varies greatly (most often the anomalies selected for analysis were an accidental diagnostic finding), as well as a review of comorbid diseases and their symptomatic manifestations. The analyzed pathologies can be found in patients of any age group, since pathologies of the musculoskeletal and nervous systems and related complaints, in particular pain in the head and neck, can bother both adults and children. There are comorbid signs that occur only with a certain anomaly, which may help to suspect a specific nosological form. Soreness in the head and neck is one of the most frequent complaints when contacting specialists in both general practice and neurologists. The root cause of such symptoms may be various vascular and bone system pathologies, in particular craniovertebral abnormalities (CVA). In less than half of cases, CVA is manifested clinically, and the symptoms are often similar to those of other diseases.
