Abstract
Calcium hydroxyapatite deposition disease may occasionally involve the superolateral portion of the longus colli muscle. Clinical symptoms include headache, neck pain, and dysphagia. Characteristic prevertebral calcifications with the epicenter at the C1-C2 level are depicted on lateral radiographs of the cervical spine.
