This study described a case of arteriovenous malformation with paraparesis and incontinence.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The detection and localization of spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) remain diagnostic challenges. This study tested the hypothesis that elliptic centric contrast-enhanced MR angiography (MRA) can be used to detect spinal dural AVFs, predict the level of fistulas, and reduce the radiation dose and volume of iodinated contrast material associated with conventional ...

Concurrent spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (AVF) and cecal arteriovenous malformation (AVM) are very rare. A 6-year old boy presented with lower limb paresis after trauma. On imaging work-up spinal dural AVF was found. It was managed with endovascular glue embolization. After two years, the boy presented with severe anemia and occult gastrointestinal tract (GIT) bleed. Cecal AVM was diagnose...

BACKGROUND Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulae comprise the majority of spinal vascular malformations. The most common clinical presentation is that of progressive myeloradiculopathy, probably related to venous hypertension, which may lead to permanent disability and even death. OBJECTIVE To report our clinical experience with spinal dural arteriovenous fistulae. METHODS Nine patients with ...

Dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) of the foramen magnum (FM) region is rare. Moreover, terminology dAVF very confusing in this region. In narrow sense, FM non-sinus-type with direct venous reflux to medulla oblongata or spinal cord via bridging veins (BVs) FM. Previous literature was systematically reviewed investigate clinical characteristics, angioarchitecture, and effective treatment dAVF. ...

damage and fistula formation are known to occur (13). Formation of spinal arteriovenous fistulas (AVF) also has been reported as a delayed complication developing after lumbar surgery (3). We experienced spinal dural/epidural AVFs that developed at the site of previous lumbar surgery and successfully treated it with n-butyl cyanoacrylate (Histoacryl, B.Braun, Melsungen, Germany). To our knowled...

BACKGROUND Spinal dural AVF is the most common type of spinal vascular malformation. However, presenting symptoms differ according to site of spinal involvement. This study described a case of arteriovenous malformation with paraparesis and incontinence. CASE PRESENTATION Diagnosis of patient was confirmed by clinical and imaging examination using magnetic resonance image and ruling out other...

OBJECTIVES To compare the characteristics of dural arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) with or without cerebral sinus thrombosis (CST), and to analyse the determinants of aggressive manifestations in patients with dural AVF. METHODS We investigated 69 patients aged 51.4 (SD 15) years who were diagnosed as having dural AVF. According to the location of the lesion and venous drainage pattern, dural A...
