Some have proposed that the calvarial thickening seen in patients with rickets results in an increased rate of Chiari I malformation (CIM) in these patients. The present study measures the posterior fossa volume in children with rickets to verify previous case reports indicting a small posterior fossa as the cause for an increased rate of CIM in children with rickets.
