Treatment involves fixation of the cervical spine to the skull base, or occipitocervical fusion, using paramedian rods and transpedicular screws with cross-links for stabilization. The patient is subsequently unable to rotate their head in the horizontal plane. If there is obstructive hydrocephalus, a pseudomeningocele can form, which is decompressed at the time of surgery.
