[Arnold-Chiari malformation and myelomeningocele. Multiple paralysis of cranial nerves (author's transl)].
Multiple paralysies of cranial nerves are reported in two infants with myelomeningocele and Arnold-Chiari malformation. In the first case, there was a shunt dysfunction and its correction cured the troubles. In the second, posterior fossa decompression was successful. The indications of the latter intervention are discussed.
