The exact pathogenesis of Arnol-Chiari malformation is not fully understood but It is thought that Arnol-Chiari malformation is the result of bone developmental abnormalities or mesodermal growth and differentiation abnormalities. Genes involved in the pathogenesis of Arnold-Chiari malformation include PAX1, PAX2, PAX3, PAX6, FGF2, TBX6, HOX gene, Noggin gene, and EFNB1.

Overview

The exact pathogenesis of Arnol-Chiari malformation is not fully understood but It is thought that Arnol-Chiari malformation is the result of bone developmental abnormalities or mesodermal growth and differentiation abnormalities. Genes involved in the pathogenesis of Arnold-Chiari malformation include PAX1, PAX2, PAX3, PAX6, FGF2, TBX6, HOX gene, Noggin gene, and EFNB1. Conditions associated with Arnold-Chiari malformation include hydrocephalus, syringomyelias,Tethered spinal cord syndrome, neurofibromatosis type 1, Noonan syndrome, Pierre Robin sequence, Klippel-Feil syndrome, Albright hereditary osteodystrophy, x-linked aqueductal stenosis, Goldenhar syndrome, Williams syndrome, Shprintzen- goldberg syndrome, achondroplasia, familial osteosclerosis, velocardiofacial syndrome, and connective tissue disorders.
