We report the first two fatal cases of sudden unprovoked cardiorespiratory arrest in children with previously undiagnosed Arnold-Chiari type 1 malformation. This diagnosis should be considered in children with unexplained cardiorespiratory arrest. The risk of sudden death in Arnold-Chiari type 1 malformation reinforces the indication for early neurosurgical procedure.
我们报告了首例两例先前未被诊断出患有1型阿诺德-奇亚里畸形的儿童突发无端心肺骤停的致命病例。对于不明原因心肺骤停的儿童应考虑这一诊断。1型阿诺德-奇亚里畸形的猝死风险强化了早期神经外科手术的指征。
