Grisel's syndrome must be suspected in children with painful torticollis associated with an upper tract respiratory infection. The best results are obtained with early conservative treatment, which prevents chronic changes leading to persistent neck pain and deformity, namely atlanto-axial rotatory fixation (AARF). We emphasize the fact that the diagnosis of Grisel's syndrome is mainly clinical, while the diagnostic confirmation of AARF can only be attained by special neuroimaging techniques.

Rhabdoid meningiomas constitute a special malignant phenotype of meningioma that has been recently included in the WHO classification of tumors of the nervous system. Usually, RMs affect middle-aged and elderly individuals. We report the fourth case of a RM occurring in a child to illustrate that the diagnosis of this tumor subtype, given its prognostic implications, must also be considered in pediatric patients.
