Although most cases are due to a Chiari-1 malformation (CM1), some are due to concomitant congenital conditions, mimicking a radiological CM1. The aim of this study was to compare PFD outcomes between CM1 and the syndromic Chiari-like crowding of the posterior fossa. A national pediatric surgical database was used to compare baseline characteristics and short-term postoperative outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Pediatric patients undergoing PFD (2012\u20132021) were identified in the ACS NSQIP-P database.

The most common syndromes were chondrodystrophies (28%), fetal alcohol syndrome (14%), and Klippel-Feil syndrome (10%). Syndromic patients were younger, had lower BMI, and exhibited a significantly higher prevalence of comorbidities, including pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiac, and neurological conditions (all\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).

While syndromic status was independently associated with reoperation, it was not an independent predictor of overall complications or readmissions.
