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 کاملIntramedullary Paraganglioma of Filum Terminale: A Rare Case Report
Paragangliomas are neuroendocrine tumors that arise from neural crest cells of the sympathetic or parasympathetic autonomic nervous system, most frequently found in the Glomus jugulare and the carotid bodies. Paragangliomas of the Central nervous system are uncommon. In spinal cord they arise intradural extramedullarily with most common site being filum terminale. Here we presented one of such ...
متن کاملPrimary intramedullary spinal cord germinoma.
A 21-year-old woman presented with an intramedullary spinal cord germinoma and a history of gait disturbance and elimination disorder. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging demonstrated two isolated lesions, one located within the medulla between T9 and T11, and another at the cauda equina (L2 to L3 levels). After partial reduction of the intramedullary mass, histological findings revealed that the t...
