Sleep-Related Breathing Disorders in Chiari Malformation Type 1: A Prospective Study of 90 Patients

This study confirms a high prevalence of SRBDs in patients with CM-1 and CM-1.5, with a predominant obstructive component. Nocturnal PSG recordings should be systematically conducted in these patients, especially those who are male, older, or overweight or those who present hydrocephalus.
