Chiari I malformation presenting as chronic cough
Pediatr Pulmonol.
2008 Oct.
Abstract
We present a 9-month-old infant with persistent cough refractory to conventional asthma therapy. An extensive evaluation eventually revealed a Chiari I malformation with syringohydromyelia. His cough resolved one month after surgical decompression, suggesting that brainstem compression from the Chiari malformation directly caused his symptoms.
