Abstract
In this report we demonstrate the de novo development of Chiari-I malf ormation with hydrosyringomyelia in 2 toddlers on serial brain magneti c resonance imaging scans. We speculate that a mismatch in bony and ne ural development is the underlying mechanism of these de novo Chiari m alformations.
