Résumé
ABSTRACT
We report an intervertebral disc calcification in a Black African child who had consulted us for neck pain. The diagnosis of C2–C3 intervertebral disc calcification was made on a standard X‐ray and CT scan. Treatment was exclusively conservative. Intervertebral disc calcifications in children are rare and benign, requiring long‐term monitoring.
