Abstrakt: A recent study conducted at the University of Pittsburgh focused on Rubinstein-Taybi Syndrome (RTS), a rare genetic condition characterized by distinct physical features. The study examined a series of RTS cases and highlighted the role of neurosurgery in managing these patients. The research found that the majority of patients had CREBBP pathogenic variants, and a significant number of patients had low-lying conus medullaris and Chiari malformation. The study concluded that RTS patients have a high incidence of symptomatic Chiari I malformation and tethered cord syndrome. [Extracted from the article]
