Abstract
CME Answers: Crowned Dens Syndrome - the Chameleon of Neck Pain Abstract. Crowned Dens Syndrome (CDS) is a rare, under-diagnosed differential diagnosis of acute neck pain. Diagnosis is a challenge in clinical practice due to the similarity of symptoms to other diseases. Knowing this differential diagnosis of acute neck pain, unnecessary examinations and expensive therapy attempts can be avoided with a targeted approach. With this article we would like to sensitize colleagues accordingly.
