Chiari type ii malformation associated with myelomeningocele can lead to severe morbidity and mortality if it is not identified and treated promptly.
People diagnosed with myelomeningocele have abnormalities of the brain and spine, including spinal cord defects and symptoms related to the area in which the spinal column and the brain meet, known as Chiari malformation. Chiari Type II or Arnold-Chiari malformation is a worse form in which the cerebellar vermis and some portion of the brain stem descend into the cervical chine.
