Genetics of Chiari Malformation & Related Disorders

ST. LOUIS CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL - ST. LOUIS, MO - AUGUST 10, 2019

In the past decade or so, more has been learned about the genetic origins of Chiari malformation. As we learn more about potential genetic variants that may be implicated in the formation of Chiari malformations, we learn more about the various related disorders that may also have genetic components.

Geneticist Dr. Christina Gurnett gives an excellent overview of what we know about the genetics of Chiari malformation and related disorders... right now.

This presentation was made at the 2019 Chiari Family Workshop held at St. Louis Children's Hospital. (2019)
