Comprehensive assessment of supratentorial and infratentorial volumes in infants with myelomeningocele with and without Chiari malformation type II
This study identified positive correlations within the same space and negative correlations between supratentorial and infratentorial volumes. LVV emerged as a critical indicator of CM-II, reflecting the relationship between reduced infratentorial space and enlarged supratentorial ventricles (hydrocephalus). These findings provide insights into the pathophysiology and clinical implications of CM-II in MMC patients.
