We reported cervical myelopathy due to atlanto-axial subluxation of athetoid quadriplegia of cerebral palsy. This lesion was present from upper cervix to lower medulla oblongata, and appeared on MRI. The changes of sSEP was useful to evaluate his spinal function. We think that pediatricians need to understand this pathophysiology, particularly for multihandicapped children.
