Abstract
Chiari malformation type 1 (CM1) is a rare condition where agreed classification and treatment are still missing. In 2019, 34 international experts from Europe achieved a consensus on the definition, diagnosis, and treatment of CM1 in children, aiming to guide the clinical diagnosis and treatment of CM1 in children. Now the consensus is interpreted based on recent international research achievements, aiming to provide references for accurate clinical assessment and individualized treatment of CM1 in children.
