The search comprised an article-to-article evaluation (‘hand search') of 12 peer-reviewed anaesthesia journals, as well as an Internet-based (‘SilverPlatter') MedlineTM-search (3.900 medical journals, US National Library of Medicine), both limited to original articles, case reports, reviews and editorials. Selected physical characteristi…

The disorder exhibits variable presentations in bones, brain, skin, internal organs, and in the oral/maxillofacial region. The aim of the present paper was to show the main results from a systematic review of AS. Material and Methods A search of the literature was performed from April to June 2016 in five electronic databases. Clinical i…

The purposes of the present article were to carry out a scoping review on Non-Syndromic CS and to discuss the most important findings retrieved. Material and Methods The steps of this scoping review were as follows: first, to pose a research question; second, to identify relevant studies to answer the research question; third, to select and retrieve the s…

A case is presented of Arnold Chiari malformation in a young male patient with early insidious presentation (neck pain and sub-occipital headaches) consulting due to the emergence of new symptoms (paresthesias, muscular weakness, cervicobrachial and radiating lumbar pain, and headaches after mild exertion).
