what are symptoms of progressing chiari malformation
Headache was also common (about 80%). These symptoms overlap with those of Meniereâs disease as well as to lesser extent, migraine (Sperling et al, 2001) Signs of a significant Chiari malformation often include downbeat nystagmus, poor visual pursuit for age, and alternating skew deviation. Occasionally patients will have sensorineural hearing loss Heuer et al., 2008). A few individuals with the Chiari malformation develop progressive neurological symptoms. These may include unsteadiness, vertigo, headache, weakness or numbness.
