Chiari Type 1 Malformation-induced Intracranial Hypertension with Diffuse Brain Edema Treated with Foramen Magnum Decompression: A Case Report
Chiari type 1 malformation (CM1) rarely causes papilloedema, which is indicative of high intracranial pressure with or without ventricular dilatation. Furthermore, concomitant brain parenchymal abnormalities have not been reported to date. In this paper, the authors report on a young woman of CM1-induced intracranial hypertension (ICH) with diffuse brain edema with a focus on venous sinus asses...
متن کاملCase Report: Acute obstructive hydrocephalus associated with infratentorial extra-axial fluid collection following foramen magnum decompression and durotomy for Chiari malformation type I
Acute obstructive hydrocephalus due to infratentorial extra-axial fluid collection (EAFC) is an extremely rare complication of foramen magnum decompression (FMD) and durotomy for Chiari malformation type I. Presence of infratentorial EAFC invariably causes obstruction at the level of the fourth ventricle or aqueduct of Silvius, thereby indicating its definitive role in hydrocephalus. Pathogene...
متن کاملSyringomyelia associated with Chiari I malformation treated with foramen magnum decompression and duraplasty using a polyglycolic acid patch and fibrin glue: a case report.
A 31-year-old woman presented with worsening numbness and pain in the arms and chest. Neurological findings at admission were decreased pain sensation and temperature sensation in the arms and chest. Magnetic resonance demonstrated a large cervical syrinx from the level of C4 to Th4 associated with Chiari I malformation. Occipital craniectomy and C1 laminectomy were performed for foramen magnum...
متن کاملAtypical Cerebellar Slump Syndrome and External Hydrocephalus following Craniocervical Decompression for Chiari I Malformation: Case Report
Symptomatic cerebellar slump (CS) and external hydrocephalus (EH) are amongst the rarer complications of foramen magnum decompression (FMD) for Chiari I malformation (CM). CS typically presents with delayed onset headache related to dural traction or with neurological deficit offsetting the benefit of FMD. EH, consisting of ventriculomegaly along with subdural fluid collection(s) (SFCs), has be...
متن کاملIncreased cerebrospinal fluid flow through the foramen of Magendie after decompression for Chiari I malformation.
A 15 year old patient with a 6 month history of cough headache was diagnosed as having a Chiari I malformation. The midsagittal T1 weighted MRI shows the tonsillar ectopia (figure A). A flow sensitive MRI, cardiac triggered gradient echo T2* weighted sequence obtained at 200 ms from the R wave, showed absence of CSF flow through the foramen of Magendie (figure B). After craniovertebral decompre...
