Summary

Book chapter(s) by Clare Rusbridge. Abstract: A patient once remarked about how a certain individual, by the name of Arnold Chiari, had affected her and her family’s life. This serves to remind us that it might sometimes be helpful if doctors could find time to explain to their patients not only the meaning of the term Arnold-Chiari malformation but also its origins.
