A pre-meeting workshop on foramen magnum stenosis in children with achondroplasia was held in Salzburg, Austria at the 9th International Conference on Children’s Bone Health (ICCBH) 22-25 June 2019. The screening, monitoring and surgical approach to foramen magnum stenosis still remains controversial with conflicting guidance in the literature. The structure of the workshop consisted of lectures, a debate, expert and delegate discussion and concluded with a research proposal and further next steps. In total, representation by 40 institutions from 22 different countries that care for approximately 1375 children with achondroplasia, were in attendance.
