The treatment of submicrocephalic tonsillar herniation combined with spinal cord cavitation is mainly surgical. Submicrocephalic herniation combined with spinal cord cavitation is a relatively common complex skull base deformity, mainly seen in spinal neurosurgery. Surgical treatment includes posterior cranial fossa decompression surgery, dural expansion and reduction suture surgery, and, if necessary, hydrocephalus and internal drainage of spinal cord cavitation. Generally speaking, early diagnosis and early surgical treatment is ideal for this disease. All surgeries are not able to cure the disease completely, but only to delay the progression of the disease and prevent its further development. If surgery is not performed early, the prognosis may be poor.
