Abstract
|
|
|
|
Arnold Chiari malformation is a disease which is characterized by herniation of a portion of the cerebellum through the foramen magnum. Symptoms vary depending on the extent of the affected area, including posterior neck pain, upper limb pain, paralysis, paresthesia, weakness, dizziness, and ataxia. Among the patients presenting with dizziness, nystagmus is frequently observed, which is primarily characterized by down-beating nystagmus. We experienced a 42- years-old female patient presented with vertigo and gait disturbance, who were diagnosed with type 1 Arnold-Chiari malformation and treated by surgical decompression.
