Neurologic morbidity has long been appreciated in adults with achondroplasia and has recently been recognized to be common in children. Neurologic complications result from bony stenosis involving the entire vertebral column and the base of the skull. These complications are reviewed with special attention to the findings in children. (J Child Neurol 1990;5:84-97).
