Abstract

It was found that syringomyelic patients and clinically healthy people out of the families with MRT-features of Chiari malformation, type I, had a confident decrease of depth and square of posterior cranial fossa. Relatives of patients, having no signs of Chiari malformation, type I, had the same changes as well. There was made a conclusion about presence of posterior cranial fossa hypoplasia in all patients with hereditary syryngomyelia and in members of their families, both having MRT-features of Chiari malformation type I, and having no malformation. It was supposed that posterior cranial fossa hypoplasia is a neurovisual reflection of its hereditary phonotype, and the latter in some cases leads to cerebellar tonsil ptosis, and if there are some endogenic and exogenic factors — to development of family syringomyelia.
