Pediatric Chiari Malformation is a condition where the brain tissue extends into the spinal canal, which can cause several health issues for children. This usually happens from birth and involves the cerebellum, a part of the brain that helps with balance, poking through an opening at the base of the skull.
As a parent, observing any irregularity in your child’s development can be a source of anxiety. One such condition that affects infants is craniosynostosis, a birth defect where one or more of the sutures in a baby’s skull close prematurely.
In the realm of Orthopaedic Surgery, particularly in the specialized areas of Spine Open Repair & Reconstruction and Spine Minimally Invasive procedures, excellence is not merely a goal but a necessity. It is with great pride that we celebrate Dr. Seth Grossman for winning the prestigious Select Surgeon award for the second year in a row.
