Because hydrosyringomyelia (HSM) is a significant contributor to the clinical picture and to the eventual outcome, it is critical that all patients with a diagnosis of Chiari-I malformation undergo MR imaging of the spinal cord. The reverse is also true, in that all patients with an apparently isolated HSM should be investigated for a possible Chiari-I malformation. In a minority of cases, bulbar elongation with a prominent obex and, sometimes, a true posterior cervico-medullary kinking may be seen in association to the tonsillar descent.
