    Cranial computed tomography (CT) effectively identifies abnormalities in Chiari II malformation, including hydrocephalus and fourth ventricle changes. This imaging aids in differentiating Chiari II from other hydrocephalus types, guiding surgical decisions.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Radiology
    • Pediatric Imaging

    Background:

    • Chiari II malformation is a complex congenital disorder.
    • Accurate diagnosis is crucial for appropriate management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present cranial computed tomographic (CT) features of Chiari II malformation.
    • To evaluate the utility of CT in diagnosing associated abnormalities and guiding surgical approaches.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 28 patients with Chiari II malformation.
    • Detailed review of cranial computed tomographic (CT) scans.

    Main Results:

    • Hydrocephalus was present in 92.9% of cases.
    • Absent or small fourth ventricle occurred in 89.3% of cases.

  • Craniolacunia was observed in 64.3% of cases, including older pediatric patients.

    • Conclusions:

    • Cranial computed tomography (CT) is a safe and effective method for evaluating Chiari II malformation.
    • Preoperative CT imaging assists in differentiating Chiari II malformation from other hydrocephalus types, influencing surgical planning.
