Résumé
This study aims to introduce a method of three-dimensional (3D) volume magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements to evaluate the evolution of syringomyelia (SM) in adults with Chiari malformation type 1 (CM-1) after posterior fossa decompression (PFD), to provide reproducible and accurate measurements. Radiologic and clinical data were obtained for 28 patients. MRI 3D syrinx volumes were evaluated by 2 observers using Philips Healthcare Tumor Tracking tool. The mean SM preoperative volume was 9.1 ± 15.3 cm This study shows that 3D volume measurement of the syrinx cavity on MRI is a reproducible and accurate method to assess the postoperative evolution of SM in CM-1 after PFD. Most patients (75%) showed a reduction of SM volume, with a mean volume decrease of 50%. The reliability is yet to be validated in further larger studies.
