Chiari II Malformation Mimicking Partial Rhombencephalosynapsis? A Case Report

Rhombencephalosynapsis is a rare congenital intracranial malformation with very few cases reported in literature. Partial rhombencephalosynapsis is a variation of this anomaly with fewer reported cases. We present the case of a patient with Chiari II malformation mimicking partial rhombencephalosyna...
