Chiari malformation type 1 (CMI) usually presents with cervical pain and suboccipital headache, among other symptoms. Patients with CMI describe symptoms that are clearly correlated with CMI for an average of 3.1 years before diagnosis. We present a case of a patient with bilateral papilledema and CMI but with no long-standing CMI symptoms. She was initially diagnosed with a concussion but developed unremitting intense occipital headaches 4 days later which prompted an evaluation for an alternative diagnosis. Treatment of this case was ventriculoperitoneal shunting, which may serve as an alternative to posterior fossa decompression under certain circumstances.
1型 Chiari 畸形(CMI)通常表现为颈部疼痛和枕下头痛等症状。CMI 患者在诊断前平均3.1年描述的症状与 CMI 明显相关。我们报告一例双侧视乳头水肿合并 CMI 但无长期 CMI 症状的患者。她最初被诊断为脑震荡,但4天后出现持续剧烈的枕部头痛,这促使对其进行进一步评估以寻找其他诊断。该病例的治疗方法是脑室腹腔分流术,在某些情况下,这可能是后颅窝减压术的替代方案。
