Abstract
CVJ tuberculosis is a rare entity that requires urgent management. Symptoms and signs may vary such as mild neck pain, torticollis, and partial to complete paralysis of all four limbs. Timely tissue diagnosis, immobilization of neck, decompression of CVJ and stabilization are the mainstay in the management of TB in this area.
