    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Neurosurgery
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Chiari Malformation is a complex neurological condition affecting cerebellar tonsils.
    • Adult presentations of Chiari Malformation can manifest in diverse clinical syndromes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the clinical features of Chiari Malformation in adult patients.
    • To classify the clinical syndromes associated with adult Chiari Malformation.
    • To outline diagnostic and surgical management strategies.

    Main Methods:

    • Clinical case review of seven adult patients with Chiari Malformation.
    • Neuro-radiologic investigations including tomography and vertebro-basilar circulation assessment.
    • Surgical procedures for patient management.

    Main Results:

    • Clinical syndromes were classified into three categories: foramen magnum compression, increased intracranial pressure/hydrocephalus, and intramedullary cervical cord syndrome.
    • Tomography and vertebro-basilar circulation imaging were valuable diagnostic tools.
    • Surgical interventions were performed for management.

    Conclusions:

    • Adult Chiari Malformation presents with distinct clinical syndromes.
    • Specific neuro-radiologic techniques are crucial for diagnosis.
    • Surgical management is an integral part of treating adult Chiari Malformation.
