Abstract

Cervical osteochondroma is a rare tumor. However, because minor trauma in patients with a history of cervical osteochondroma can lead to serious neurological damage, spinal evaluation using computed tomography in hereditary multiple exostosis patients including patients with no presenting symptoms is required; in addition, sufficient explanation of the possibility of neurological damage after minor trauma to the head should be given to the patient and guardians.
