Chiari syndrome in neonates
The paper provides an update on the etiology, pathogenesis, and clinical types I, II, and III of Chiari syndrome. Recommendations are given for its early diagnosis. As an example, the authors describe their own observation of a very premature baby with Chiari syndrome type II, who was born after the use of assisted reproductive technologies. It is shown that with timely prenatal diagnosis and early neurosurgical treatment, timely care can be delivered to prevent or alleviate severe neurological and other disorders.
