title: Hypoplasia of the odontoid with atlanto-axial subluxation in Hurler's syndrome.
abstract: There appears to be an increased incidence of hypoplasia of the odontoid in Hurler's syndrome. As this predisposes to atlanto-axial subluxation, it should be sought in this mucopolysaccharidosis, as well as in Morquio's syndrome.
