  • Title: Spontaneous resolution and recurrence of a Chiari I malformation and associated syringomyelia. Case report.
    Author: Sun JC, Steinbok P, Cochrane DD.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 2000 Apr; 92(2 Suppl):207-10. PubMed ID: 10763693.
    Abstract:
    The spontaneous resolution of syringomyelia has been reported infrequently. In patients with Chiari I malformations, resolution of the syringomyelia has sometimes been associated with improvement of their malformation. The authors present a case of spontaneous resolution followed by recurrence of syringomyelia and a corresponding change in the Chiari malformation. This case is of interest in light of the theories postulated to explain spontaneous resolution of syringomyelia.
