Abstract

AIm: To explore the surgical effect of cerebellar tonsillectomy with suboccipital decompression and duraplasty by small surgical incision (3~4cm around the foramina magnum) on treating Chiari I Malformation (CM I) patients. MaterIal and Methods: A retrospective study was undertaken on 76 CM I patients treated by this surgery. The surgical efficacy on clinical symptoms and syringomyelia were overall evaluated and analyzed. Results: The study included 76 cases (36 men and 40 women; age range, 5–58 years; mean age at surgery, 38.8 years). Preoperative MRI confirmed 56 cases associated with syringomyelia. The follow-up period ranged from 25 to 58 months (median, 46 months). At the end of follow-up, 61 patients (80.26%) had improved, 12 patients (15.79%) were stabilized, and 3 patients (3.95%) had worsened. In MRI scan, syrinx of 55 patients (98.21%) had improved or stabilized compare with syrinx growth in only one patient (1.79%). Statistical analysis reveal the surgical effect tend to be much better in patients with short duration of preoperative symptoms (P=0.001). ConclusIon: Cerebellar tonsillectomy with suboccipital decompression and duraplasty can provide long-time cure for most CM I cases. Early diagnosis and surgery is necessary to improve the surgical effect. A 3~4cm incision around foramen magnum is enough for these operations and may be conducive to reduce postoperative complications.

Özet

AMAÇ: Chiari I Malformasyonu (CM I) hastalarında küçük cerrahi insizyonla (foramina magnum etrafında 3~4 cm) suboksipital dekompresyon ve duraplasti ile serebellar tonsillektominin cerrahi etkisini inceleme. YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: Bu cerrahiyle tedavi edilen 76 CM I hastasının retrospektif bir çalışması yapıldı. Cerrahinin klinik belirtiler ve siringomyeli üzerindeki etkinliği genel olarak değerlendirildi ve analiz edildi. BULGULAR: Bu çalışmaya 76 olgu (36 erkek ve 40 kadın; yaş aralığı 5-58 yaş; cerrahi sırasında ortalama yaş 38,8 yıl) alındı. Preoperatif MRG 56 hastada ilişkili siringomyeli gösterdi. Takip dönemi 25 - 58 ay arasındaydı (medyan 46 ay). Takip sonunda 61 hasta (%80,26) daha iyiydi, 12 hasta (%15,79) stabilize olmuştu ve 3 hasta (%3,95) daha kötüydü. MRG taramasında, 55 hastanın (%98,21) sirinksi daha iyi veya stabilize durumdayken sadece bir hastada sirinkste büyüme olmuştu (%1,79). İstatistiki analiz cerrahi etkinin preoperatif belirtilerin süresinin daha kısa olduğu hastalarda çok daha iyi olma eğiliminde olduğunu gösterdi (P=0,001). SONUÇ: Suboksipital dekompresyon ve duraplasti ile serebellar tonsillektomi çoğu CM I olgusu için uzun dönemli düzelme sağlayabilir. Cerrahinin etkisini arttırmak üzere erken tanı ve erken cerrahi gereklidir. Bu ameliyatlar için foramen magnum etrafında 3~4 cm insizyon yeterlidir ve postoperatif komplikasyonları azaltmak konusunda etkili olabilir.
