Özet
Computerized tomography and conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been used to show many structural alterations that can either develop because of, or accompany, CMI. These include cerebellar tonsillar herniation, small posterior fossa volume, basilar invagination, occipitalization of the atlas, hydrocephalus, and syringomyelia (4, 9, 15). In addition, many specific morphometric findings have been reported, such as a shallow posterior cranial fossa, short anteroposterior length of the foramen magnum, and a large angle of the tentorium (4). Although correlations have been confirmed between these structural alterations and clinical presentations in various studies, the degree of tonsillar herniation has not always been compatible with the
