RESUMO
Congenital spondyloytic spondylolisthesis (CSS) is characterized as a pars-interarticularis well-corticated cleft with antherolithesis. The presence of spina bifida and vertebral dysplastic changes corroborate the possibility of a congenital etiology. It is a rare condition, usually discovered incidentally, especially after a trauma and should be differentiated from traumatic spondylolysis, which requires aggressive treatments. The management is often conservative, with surgery being indicated for symptomatic or unstable lesions. We report the case of a sixth cervical vertebra Congenital Spondylolytic Spondylolisthesis (CCS), discovered fortuitously following a minor trauma, in a 19-year-old male patient, treated conservatively with a favorable evolution.
