Symptomatic Multi-Nodular Fourth Ventricular Choroid Plexus Papillary Fibrosis in the Context of Chiari II Malformation: Case Report and Literature Review.

Article Synopsis
- Chiari II malformation (CM-II) is a congenital condition involving the displacement of brain structures through the foramen magnum, and it can lead to various mass lesions in the brain.
- A 9-year-old boy with a history of CM-II and related health issues underwent successful surgery to remove multiple masses from his fourth ventricle, which improved his hand dexterity and strength.
- The pathology of these masses was characterized by choroid plexus papillary fibrosis, a finding not previously documented in similar cases, highlighting a unique histological profile of the lesions.

Chiari malformations (CM) are often diagnosed in childhood and younger adults, with an incidence of only 0.77% in adult populations. Patients with CM may develop syringomyelia and increased intracranial pressure (ICP) due to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) obstruction and altered fluid dynamics at the cervicomedullary junction.

A Chiari I malformation is a frequently encountered anomaly of the posterior fossa, occurring in a notable percentage of the population. It often coexists with various other craniovertebral junction abnormalities, albeit less frequently with Klippel-Feil syndrome. Interestingly, the majority of individuals with Chiari I malformation do not exhibit any symptoms.

Objective: The surgical management of basilar invagination without atlantoaxial dislocation (type B basilar invagination) remains controversial. Hence, we have reported the use of posterior intra-articular C1-2 facet distraction, fixation, and cantilever technique versus foramen magnum decompression in treating type B basilar invagination as well as the results and surgical indications for this procedure.
Methods: This was a single-center retrospective cohort study.
Effect of modified clivoaxial angle on surgical decision making and treatment outcomes in patients with Chiari malformation type 1.

Introduction: Chiari malformation type 1 (CM1), a complex pathological developmental disorder of the craniovertebral junction, is typically characterized by herniation of the cerebellar tonsils from the foramen magnum. Treatment using posterior fossa decompression alone without taking the ventral cervico-medullary compression into consideration may lead to unsatisfactory treatment outcomes. The current study evaluated the utility of the modified clivoaxial angle (MCAA) in assessing ventral compression and also examined its effect on treatment outcomes.
