Sprengel deformity represents a rare complex congenital anomaly in children, characterized by malposition and dysplasia of the scapula. The omovertebral bone is considered to be the key pathoanatomic structure that affects the scapula and prevents its normal descent. Three-dimensional computed tomography (3D-CT) was employed in this study to clarify the morphological abnormalities of both the omovertebral bone and the scapula, thereby enhancing our understanding of this uncommon condition.
