天坛小儿神外| 专访宫剑:儿童Chiari畸形的天坛小儿神外诊疗策略(上)-手术指征

天坛小儿神外

第4期

神外前沿讯,很多儿童因各种原因偶然发现小脑扁桃体下疝,到医院咨询时经常听到医生提起Chiari畸形。究竟小脑扁桃体下疝与Chiari畸形是什么关系?什么情况下才需要手术?

北京天坛医院小儿神经外科主任宫剑教授认为,先天性小脑扁桃体下疝,多数不需要手术治疗;继发性小脑扁桃体下疝,需要治疗原发病而解除下疝。

访谈内容如下:

神外前沿:儿童小脑扁桃体下疝常见吗?它与Chiari畸形是什么关系?与颅底凹陷、扁平颅底又如何区别呢? 

宫剑:颅内小脑扁桃体下疝是指小脑扁桃体疝入枕骨大孔甚至椎管,分为先天性和继发性。先天性小脑扁桃体下疝人群发生率为0.5-3.5%,好发于0-10岁儿童,多数不需要手术治疗1。继发性小脑扁桃体下疝是因颅内原发病灶,如肿瘤、出血、挫裂伤等致使颅压增高,将小脑扁桃体推挤进入枕骨大孔,需要治疗原发病而解除下疝。

Chiari畸形是一组累及后颅窝颅骨、小脑、脑干及颈髓的颅颈交界区病变。1891年由奥地利病理学家Hans Chiari首先提出2,他对一名死于伤寒的17岁女性进行解剖,发现“小脑扁桃体成圆锥体样下疝至枕骨大孔及椎管内”,将其定义为“Chiari畸形”并沿用至今3

因此,Chiari畸形既往又称为“先天性小脑扁桃体下疝”4、“小脑扁桃体异位”等5;而小脑扁桃体下疝并不都属于Chiari畸形,还可能是其它颅内疾患导致代偿性生理改变,即“继发性小脑扁桃体下疝”。

其它易混淆的概念还包括:

颅底凹陷症(Basilar Invagination),是指颈椎相对位置偏高、偏后,枢椎齿状突侵入枕骨大孔内,超过硬腭后缘-枕骨大孔后缘连线(Chamberlain线)大于5mm6(图1),向后方压迫延颈髓,堵塞脑脊液循环通道。可见于先天性颅、椎骨发育不良、风湿性关节炎等疾病7,33%合并Chiari畸形8

扁平颅底(Platybasia),是指鼻根-鞍结节连线与鞍结节-枕大孔前沿连线的夹角(Welcher-Basal角)过大(超过130°-140°9,10),导致后颅窝的容积减少。据报道,Chiari Ⅰ型中60%可发现扁平颅底9

由于概念繁多,极易混淆,与Chiari畸形相关的其它常见疾病列表如下(表1)

神外前沿:儿童Chiari畸形形成的原因?

宫剑:国内外有大量针对Chiari畸形的病理学研究,但迄今为止,没有一种理论能够清晰阐述。常见的观点包括:

(1)颅腔内容物与容积不匹配假说:先天发育或颅腔容积过小、或内容物过多,导致后颅窝拥挤,小脑扁桃体疝入枕骨大孔22

(2)压力锤效应假说:胎儿发生脑积水后,脑室系统顺应性降低,一旦失代偿,后颅窝内容物下疝,形成Chiari畸形23

(3)脊髓腔低压效应假说(suck and slosh effect):正常情况,脑/脊蛛网膜下腔相通且压力平衡,当脊膜膨出或腰大池-腹腔引流后,脊髓腔压力降低,后颅窝内容物会被“吸入”枕骨大孔,导致小脑扁桃体下疝24

神外前沿:Chiari畸形的临床分型很复杂,能简单描述一下吗?哪种最常见?具体临床表现?

宫剑:根据影像学的不同表现,Chiari畸形具体分为0型,Ⅰ型,1.5型,Ⅱ型、Ⅲ型、Ⅳ型、Ⅴ型(详见表2)。Chiari Ⅰ型临床最为常见,诊断标准是小脑扁桃体疝出的部分低于McRae线(枕大孔前后点连线)超出5mm25。此标准于1986年由美国影像学家Barkovich提出并沿用至今。Chiari Ⅰ型人群发病率0.5-3.6%26-28,约占Chiari 畸形的85-90%。好发于0-10岁儿童,平均诊断年龄7.6岁,男女比例基本相当26,2993%的Chiari Ⅰ型患儿无临床症状,不合并脊髓空洞和脑积水,又称为“良性Chiari Ⅰ型”1,不需要手术治疗,定期随访即可5,30。其余7 %需要手术的Chiari Ⅰ型患儿,9.6%31合并脑积水;23%-57%28合并脊髓空洞(其中86%位于颈段28);14%-22.4%患儿合并脊柱侧弯28

Chiari Ⅰ型的临床症状体征可分为5种类型32:(1)Chiari头痛:此特征性头痛包括三大特征:①疼痛位于颈枕部;②疼痛可被Valsalva动作(屏气、提重物时)诱发;③呈发作性短时间疼痛,常为数秒或数分钟;(2)颅神经受累症状:如复视、三叉神经痛、听力下降、吞咽困难等(3)脑干受累症状:如呼吸节律变化、眼球震颤等;(4)小脑受累症状:头晕,行走不稳,共济失调;(5)脊髓受累症状:分离性感觉障碍、鱼际肌萎缩。这些临床症状与体征对于手术的选择及预后的评估有重要价值。

表2:详述Chiari畸形各种临床分型及治疗手段

神外前沿:Chiari Ⅰ型国际公认的手术指征是什么?是否应该早发现早治疗?

宫剑:针对Chiari Ⅰ型国际上并没有公认的手术指征。综合各主要医学中心治疗方案,与手术指征相关的因素主要包括:1.是否符合Chiari Ⅰ型,即疝出的小脑扁桃体超出McRae线5mm;2. 是否有典型的Chiari头痛及其它相关症状体征;3.是否合并脊髓空洞。

需要指出,儿童与成人不同,Chiari Ⅰ型的表现往往十分隐匿,特别是3岁以下的幼儿,不具备任何主诉,仅表现为易激惹,需要小儿神经外科医生综合症状体征、影像学改变,精准把控手术指征。

儿童脑部的黄金发育期是0-6岁,6岁以后发育已极为有限。对于有症状的Chiari Ⅰ型患儿,国际公认越早接受治疗,效果越好。芝加哥儿童纪念医院对96名Chiari Ⅰ型儿童患者进行回顾性分析,发现8岁以前手术的患者症状缓解率较8岁以后的患者高出3倍35。美国俄克拉荷马州健康科学中心大学发现,0-8岁的儿童较8-17岁的儿童术后恢复速度更快,住院的时间明显较短36。纽约大学朗格尼医学中心对美国KID数据库13812例Chiari Ⅰ型患者进行了回顾性分析发现,越早手术的患者术后手术并发症越少37

研究表明,Chiari畸形患者症状持续时间越长(>2年),术后缓解率越低38。部分合并脊髓空洞的成人患者,术后脊髓空洞即便消失了,临床症状仍不缓解甚至加重39。儿童有良好的神经自修复能力,术后症状体征的改善率明显优于成人5,40。因此我们建议,儿童Chiari Ⅰ型患者只要满足手术指征,应早发现早治疗,以免因拖延治疗造成难以修复的神经功能损伤。

表3:世界部分医疗机构针对Chiari I型设定的手术指征:

神外前沿:针对儿童Chiari Ⅰ型,北京天坛医院小儿神经外科诊疗规范是什么?

宫剑:北京天坛医院小儿神经外科是国内主要儿童Chiari畸形诊疗中心,针对儿童Chiari Ⅰ型,综合国际主要医学中心的诊疗规范,结合我们自身大量临床病例总结,制定诊疗规范如下:

1.小脑扁桃体下疝超出McRae线5mm,Chiari Ⅰ型诊断明确者;

2.出现特征性Chiari头痛;

3.出现与Chiari畸形明确相关的其它症状和体征;

4.合并脊髓空洞者。

在第1项基础上,满足2、3、4任何一项即建议手术;满足两项以上者,强烈建议手术。
