INTRODUCTION: Type I Chiari malformation (CM-I) is a common congenital malformation, often accompanied by syringomyelia. Obstruction of CSF circulation in the foramen magnum is the reason for the formation of the syringomyelia. Fourth ventricle stenting (FVS) could ensure the CSF flow from the fourth ventricle, which might represent an effective approach to achieve syringomyelia relief.
METHODS: We have reviewed four cases of CM-I children who received FVS implantation from November 2021 to July 2022. Each of the patients underwent FMD. The ventricular catheter of an Ommaya reservoir (Medtronic, Inc.) was used as a stent. Duraplasty was performed with autologous fascia. Cervical MRI rechecks were routinely done 3 months later, and the clinical symptoms were followed up.
RESULTS: Four children received FVS, including one boy and three girls, aged from 12 months to 10 years, with a mean age of 6.8 years. No major complication occurred. The syringomyelia or hydrocephalus in each patient were all attenuated, as observed on the reexamination MRI images. During the follow-up time with a mean of 10.8 months, no patient had new symptoms.
CONCLUSION: FVS is an effective and safe method for operation of CM-1 in children. The indications of FVS include redo-FMD, difficulties to ensure post-FMD CSF circulation patency at the foramen magnum and with obstructive hydrocephalus. A long-term follow-up duration is necessary.
