The features of Sprengel's deformity, also known as congenital high scapula, include abnormal positioning and dysplasia of the affected scapula, with a possible omovertebral connection or atrophy of the surrounding muscles. This case primarily aims to present the CT scan findings of a 19-year-old male with Sprengel deformity. Imaging enables the definitive diagnosis of this congenital malformation, and allows for the detection of associated anomalies, particularly the presence of the omovertebral bone, thereby facilitating appropriate management.
