Hello and thanks for using HealthcareMagic.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
Chiari 2 malformation is a neurosurgical condition and is treated by Neurosurgeons, fatty liver is a medical condition, evaluated and treated by Gastroentrologists though.
If significant neurological symptoms due to Chiari 2 malformation, surgery may be necessary to correct it and improve your symptoms.
On the other hand, fatty liver may be caused by different conditions such viral infections, diabetes, obesity, chronic alcohol intake, some medications induced and several others.
Hope you found the answer helpful. Let me me know if I can assist you further.
