Cervical encephalocele in a newborn--Chiari III malformation. Case report and review of the literature.
Childs Nerv Syst. 2001 May; 17(6):373-5.CN

Abstract

Chiari malformations are brain stem anomalies with or without spinal canal involvement. The combination of brain stem and cerebellar anomaly with a cervical cele is named Chiari III malformation. Patients with this extremely rare defect frequently present with severe neurological defects and can have a poor prognosis. Following a report on a newborn child with a Chiari III malformation that took a fatal but typical course the literature is reviewed.
