[Idiopathic intracranial hypertension in a patient with Chiari I malformation].
CASE REPORT The case involves a 22-year-old woman who presented with headache and decreased vision. She showed asymmetric papilledema, and a 6-mm tonsillar descent was observed in the image tests. She was diagnosed with secondary intracranial hypertension coinciding with the symptoms of a Chiari malformation (MC). DISCUSSION Chiari malformation type I is the most common in this group of malfo...
متن کاملSleep Apnea Syndrome after Posterior Fossa Surgery: A Case of Acquired Ondine's Curse
Introduction: Ondine’s Curse is a catastrophic but rare condition in adults. It is referred to as a congenital or acquired condition, in which the patient cannot breathe automatically while asleep. Acquired causes of this disease can be any cause affecting the ventrolateral part of the medulla, which is considered to be the breathing center in humans. Case Report: A 51-year-old woman, with...
متن کاملCoexistent Chiari Malformation and Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension: Which Should Be Treated First?- Case Report and Review
Previous reports have described concomitant presentation of papilledema and Chiari malformation type 1 (CM1). The pathophysiology of each and their relationship remain poorly understood. As such, different management approaches regarding treating the CM1 or the pseudotumor initially have been described, with varying degrees of success. We report the case of an 11 year old girl with 6 mm tonsill...
متن کامل3-D simulation of posterior fossa reduction in Chiari I.
We proposed a 3D model to evaluate the role of platybasia and clivus length in the development of Chiari I (CI). Using a computer aided design software, two DICOM files of a normal CT scan and MR were used to simulate different clivus lengths (CL) and also different basal angles (BA). The final posterior fossa volume (PFV) was obtained for each variation and the percentage of the volumetric cha...
متن کاملCardiovascular risk factors in Chiari malformation and idiopathic intracranial hypertension
OBJECTIVES Both Chiari malformation type 1 (CMI, i.e., the idiopathic caudal ectopy of cerebellar tonsils into foramen magnum) and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) are characterized by reduced intracranial compliance (ICC) due to disturbed circulation of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). An increasing body of evidence links cardiovascular disease to CSF circulation disturbances. The aim of t...
