The reasons why I consider this scientific article published in 2009 a milestone on this subject are many: the authority of the Authors, the large case series of over 3000 patients, the fact that they also evaluated the mild descent of the cerebellar tonsils (Low-Lying Cerebellar Tonsils) and not only the descent of the cerebellar tonsils sufficient to configure Chiari type I malformation (CM1), and the correlation of the various descents of the cerebellar tonsils with tethered cord syndrome and occult tethered cord syndrome.
I would like to point out that the surgical treatment of tethered cord syndrome and occult tethered cord syndrome was performed under GENERAL ANESTHESIA with section of the INTRADURAL FILUM TERMINALE.
My minimally invasive surgical procedure under LOCAL ANESTHESIA for the EXTRADURAL section of the FILUM TERMINALE, which I will discuss further here and on other pages of the website, was published later in 2018, although I have been performing it since 2010.
