Özet
Arnold Chiari malformasyonu konjenital bir anomali olmakla birlikte genellikle2 ve 3. dekatta bulgu vermekte bazen de asemptomatik kalabilmektedir. Genellikle ilk olarak artmış derin tendon refleksleri ve nistagmus ile bulgu veren bu malformasyonda nadir olarak akkiz esotropya ilk bulgu olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Kliniğimize akkiz esotropya ve baş ağrısı nedeni ile başvurup daha sonra manyetik resonans görüntüleme ile bu malformasyonun varlığı saptanan olgu sunulmuştur
