Comprehensive comparative study of Chiari-like malformation in veterinary and human medicine.

Article Synopsis
  • This review explores Chiari-like malformation (CLM), a condition characterized by displacement of the hindbrain due to inadequate skull size, affecting both humans and animals.
  • CLM causes obstruction at the craniocervical junction, disrupting cerebrospinal fluid flow and potentially leading to syringomyelia, with symptoms like head tremors, ataxia, and pain.
  • While magnetic resonance imaging is essential for diagnosis, current treatments such as foramen magnum decompression provide only temporary relief, highlighting the need for further research on effective long-term treatment options.

Background: We sought to determine which aspect of the upper instrumented vertebrae (UIV)-tilt angle or screw angle-was more strongly associated with: (1) proximal junctional kyphosis/failure (PJK/F), (2) other mechanical complications and reoperations, and (3) patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs).

Methods: A single-institution, retrospective cohort study was undertaken for patients undergoing adult spinal deformity (ASD) surgery from 2011 to 2017. Only patients with UIV at T7 or below were included.

Blood volume shifts during postural adjustment lead to irregular distension of the internal jugular vein (IJV). In microgravity, distension may contribute to flow stasis and thromboembolism, though the regional implications and associated risk remain unexplored. We characterized regional differences in IJV volume distension and flow complexity during progressive head-down tilt (HDT) (0°, -6°, -15°, -30°) using conventional ultrasound and vector flow imaging.
