Spinal arteriovenous fistulas of the filum terminale.
The filum terminale is an anatomic structure at the end of the spinal cord. Only a few cases of AVFs of the filum terminale have been reported. These AVFs usually consist of a single communication between the anterior spinal artery and a single draining vein. We retrospectively analyzed the clinical and radiologic features and treatment of 4 patients with spinal AVFs of the filum terminale. Cli...
متن کاملArteriovenous Fistula of the Filum Terminale Misdiagnosed and Previously Operated as Lower Lumbar Degenerative Disease
Filum terminale arteriovenous fistula (FTAVF) presenting as a cause of failed back surgery syndrome is a rare entity. We report a 48-year-old male patient who presented with clinical features of a conus medullaris/cauda equina lesion. He had upper and lower motor neuron signs in both the lower limbs with autonomic dysfunction. The patient was misdiagnosed and was operated twice earlier for lumb...
متن کاملIntraoperative angiography for cranial dural arteriovenous fistula.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE IA is a valuable adjunct during surgery for a variety of neurovascular diseases; however, there are no reported series describing IA for DAVFs. This study was undertaken to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IA for DAVFs. MATERIALS AND METHODS A retrospective review of DAVF surgical cases during a 20-year period was conducted, and cases with IA were evaluated. Clinical...
متن کاملThe Failure of Operation for Spinal Dural Arteriovenous Fistula Demonstrated by Intraoperative Indocyanine Green Video- Angiography
Our objective was to both describe and show (via video) the use of intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) video-angiography for obliteration of a spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). ICG video-angiography is an emerging tool for delineating intraoperative vascular anatomy with significant potential in the treatment of vascular diseases in the spine. The authors presented the case of a 49-...
متن کاملMature spinal teratoma associated with thickened filum terminale.
A 30-year-old man presented with an intradural spinal teratoma with thickened filum terminale manifesting as urinary and sexual disturbances, and low back pain persisting for 4 years. Spinal magnetic resonance imaging revealed thickened filum terminale containing a heterogeneously enhanced intradural lesion extending from the L-3 to L-4 levels and in contact with the conus medullaris. The filum...
