Abstract: |
Objective Chiari Malformation type I nowadays represents one of the most debated and treated entities of neurosurgery. Several different symptoms of cerebellar, brainstem and spinal cord pathology have been described and attributed to this malformation. In this paper, we reported a very uncommon association of Chiari I malformation with isolated hemihypertrophy in one case and clawing hands in the second case. |
