It requires patients to set aside three to five hours for treatment plus travel to and from the center three times a week. One year of hemodialysis can cost up to $72,000, while a year of peritoneal dialysis costs about $53,000, according to information from the U.S. Renal Data System.
(Bear et al., 1996). In order for the axons of the receptor cell to form the olfactory nerve, they must pass through the cribiform plate, a thin sheet of bone. The olfactory bulb lies on the cribiform plate, and the once the axons have reached it, they make their first synapse in the glomeruli, within the bulb.Bear et al., 1996).

However, the small size or shape of the Chiari skull is mismatched to the size of the brain. Thus, a crowding of the brainstem, cerebellum, and tonsils occurs. Crowding pushes the tonsils out of the skull through the opening (foramen magnum) where the spinal cord exits (Fig. 2). Herniation of the cerebellar tonsils can extend several millimeters below the foramen magnum. The tonsils put pressure on the brainstem and spinal cord, block CSF flow, and result in the Chiari signs and symptoms.
