Abstract
Chiari malformation (CM) is a frequent finding in multisutural and syndromic craniosynostosis, occurring in 70% of patients with Crouzon's syndrome, 75% with oxycephaly, 50% with Pfeiffer's syndrome and 100% with the Kleeblattschädel deformity. The pathogenesis of this condition and rationale for treatment are still controversial.
