Minimally invasive subpial tonsillectomy for Chiari I decompression

BACKGROUND: A number of different surgical techniques have been used through the years to address Chiari I malformation (CMI). METHODS: This article describes how we surgically manage CMI at two high-volume centers. We call the technique the minimally invasive subpial tonsillectomy (MIST). The techn...

description BACKGROUND: A number of different surgical techniques have been used through the years to address Chiari I malformation (CMI). METHODS: This article describes how we surgically manage CMI at two high-volume centers. We call the technique the minimally invasive subpial tonsillectomy (MIST). The technique consists of a minimalistic dissection and craniectomy with a short, linear durotomy for the subpial tonsillar resection. The dura is closed without the use of a duraplasty. CONCLUSIONS: We describe our current methods of surgery for CMI. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s00701-016-2877-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
