摘要
Noonan syndrome is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous genetic condition. Arnold-Chiari malformation has been previously reported in three cases of Noonan syndrome. We describe a fourth case with this association. We suggest that brain and cervical spine MRI should be performed if neurological symptoms are present.
