Surgical Management of the Complex Chiari Malformation

Presented by Dr. Deb Bhowmick for the American Syringomyelia & Chiari Alliance Project's 36th Annual Conference

Chiari malformations in adults and children vary significantly in anatomy, symptoms, and clinical history. This talk reviews special cases in which adjuncts such as craniocervical fusion, skull base resections, and odontoidectomy are considered for improved outcomes. Furthermore, treatment options for previous surgical complications or clinical progression after surgery are reviewed.

Dr. Deb A. Bhowmick is a neurosurgeon specializing in complex spinal surgery, craniocervical junction, and congenital spinal malformation surgery at Duke University Hospital.
