Cerebrospinal fluid dynamics in the Arnold-Chiari malformation.
A myelomeningocele associated with the ArnoldChiari malformation is now one of the commonest neonatal surgical emergencies. Hydrocephalus used to be the main cause of death in these infants during the first year of life, but since the advent of ventriculo-atrial shunting procedures the mortality and morbidity have improved. However, the management of the hydrocephalus still remains a serious pr...
متن کاملA Rare Case of Chiari Type-1 Malformation Accompanied by Symptomatic Cerebrospinal Fluid Hypovolemia: Comparison of Congenital Chiari Type-1 Malformation and Acquired Chiari Malformation Secondary to Cerebrospinal Fluid Hypovolemia: Case Report
A 23-year-old woman was injured in a rear-end collision. She had general malaise and posterior neck pain, which were more severe when she was in an upright position. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed the presence of cerebellar tonsil descensus and syringomyelia in the spinal cord. Radioisotope (RI) cisternography showed signs of an early accumulation of RI in the bladder, and a delayed ...
متن کامل[Postoperative complications in Chiari I malformation: duroplasty and cerebrospinal fluid leak].
UNLABELLED The surgical treatment of Chiari I malformation is to carry out a suboccipital decompression. It is described that postoperative complications may occur, especially if the dura is open and closed using a graft (duraplasty). Among them, one of the most important events due to its difficult handling is cerebrospinal fluid leak through the suture line. OBJECTIVE To conduct a postopera...
متن کاملChiari I malformation and neurofibromatosis type 1.
Single case reports exist in the medical literature of patients with tonsillar ectopia, i.e., the Chiari I malformation and neurofibromatosis type 1. However, large series of patients with either of these entities have not been examined for the presence of both defects. We have retrospectively examined two large groups of pediatric patients: Group I, with the primary diagnosis of Chiari I malfo...
متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid flow dynamics study in Chiari I malformation: implications for syrinx formation.
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow abnormalities are known to be present in Chiari I malformation and to underlie the origin and progression of associated syringomyelia. The incidence of syrinx formation, however, is variable for unknown reasons. The aim of this study was to investigate whether differences in CSF flow dynamics in patients with Chiari I malformation may account for the different cli...
