Osteopetrosis is a rare genetic disorder resulting in increased bone density and decreased bone remodelling. Bone expansion results in the crowding of neural foramina causing cranial nerve compression. Here, we describe a female infant in her mid infancy presented with no eye contact since birth, and abdominal distension for 2 months. On CT evaluation, sclerotic bones with bilateral optic canal narrowing were present. A crowded posterior fossa with Arnold Chiari type I malformation was seen on MRI evaluation, suggesting a rare association of osteopetrosis with Arnold Chiari's malformation.

D008279 Magnetic Resonance Imaging Non-invasive method of demonstrating internal anatomy based on the principle that atomic nuclei in a strong magnetic field absorb pulses of radiofrequency energy and emit them as radiowaves which can be reconstructed into computerized images. The concept includes proton spin tomographic techniques.

D001139 Arnold-Chiari Malformation A group of congenital malformations involving the brainstem, cerebellum, upper spinal cord, and surrounding bony structures. Type II is the most common, and features compression of the medulla and cerebellar tonsils into the upper cervical spinal canal and an associated MENINGOMYELOCELE. Type I features similar, but less severe malformations and is without an associated meningomyelocele. Type III has the features of type II with an additional herniation of the entire cerebellum through the bony defect involving the foramen magnum, forming an ENCEPHALOCELE. Type IV is a form a cerebellar hypoplasia. Clinical manifestations of types I-III include TORTICOLLIS; opisthotonus; HEADACHE; VERTIGO; VOCAL CORD PARALYSIS; APNEA; NYSTAGMUS, CONGENITAL; swallowing difficulties; and ATAXIA.
