In this webinar, we interview Dr. Clare Rusbridge about Chiari-like malformation and syringomyelia. This is a complex developmental condition of the skull and craniocervical vertebrae, and is characterised by a conformational change and overcrowding of the brain and cervical spinal cord, particularly at the craniospinal junction. Obstruction to cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) channels can result in pain and a tendency for fluid cavitation of the spinal cord, called syringomyelia (SM).
