The congenital elevation of the scapula, also known as Sprengel deformity, is a rare condition characterized by a high, dysmorphic scapula. We report a series of 7 cases of scapula elevation, collected at the Department of Traumatology- Pediatric Orthopedics of CHU Hassan II of Fez, over a period of 6 years, from November 2010 to September 2016.
