Posterior Fossa Decompression with or Without Duraplasty for Chiari I Malformation

Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2023
Posterior fossa decompression (PFD) with/without duraplasty is the standard surgical treatment for symptomatic CM-1. Posterior fossa decompression without duraplasty (PFD) may be associated with shorter operative times and hospital stays, fewer complications, and may yield improvements in symptoms and syrinx sizes.

Endoscopic assisted posterior fossa decompression

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2001
Technical advances in neurosurgery follow a general philosophy favouring less invasive means of managing surgical disease. We describe a patient with a symptomatic type I Chiari malformation managed by posterior fossa decompression using endoscopic techniques. Technical considerations, including drawbacks of the procedure, are discussed.

Persistent Syringomyelia After Posterior Fossa Decompression for Chiari Malformation

World Neurosurgery, 2020
Chiari malformation (CM) is often comorbid with syringomyelia. The treatment of CM via posterior fossa decompression (PFD) may not improve syringomyelia in up to 40% of patients, based on historical cohorts. Management of these patients is problematic, as both reoperation and syrinx shunting have high failure rates in the long term.We retrospectively ...

Posterior fossa decompression for children with Chiari I malformation and hydrocephalus

Child's Nervous System, 2021
Chiari I malformation (CMI) and hydrocephalus often coexist, with no clear understanding of the cause-and-effect relationship. In the absence of other associated etiologies, the traditional teaching has been to treat the hydrocephalus first, partly to minimize the risk of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak from CMI decompression in the setting of elevated ...

Full-Endoscopic Technique for Posterior Fossa Decompression in Chiari Malformation

Operative Neurosurgery, 2023
BACKGROUND AND IMPORTANCE: Full-endoscopic techniques are well-described for spinal procedures. Although endoscopic-assisted techniques are reported for posterior fossa decompression (PFD) in Chiari malformation (CM), a full-endoscopic technique is yet to be reported in these patients.

TREATMENT OF TRIGEMINAL NEURALGIA BY POSTERIOR FOSSA MICROVASCULAR DECOMPRESSION

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1994
A series of 109 cases of microvascular decompression for intractable trigeminal neuralgia was reviewed. Operations were performed by a single surgeon and cases were reviewed independently by the one author. The failure rate in this study was 17.6%. A further 6.5% of cases endured brief recurrences not requiring treatment.
