MR imaging of spinal cord and vertebral body infarction.
PURPOSE To study the usefulness of MR in the evaluation of spinal cord infarctions and associated findings. MATERIALS AND METHODS MR examinations of 12 patients (10 men and two women) were reviewed retrospectively. Onset of symptoms of spinal cord ischemia was abrupt in all patients; MR was performed 8 hr to 4 months after onset. Contrast-enhanced MR was performed in four of the patients. R...

متن کاملSpinal intraosseous arteriovenous fistula in the fractured vertebral body.
A 68-year-old woman presenting with progressive paraparesis was diagnosed with an AVF involving a previously fractured L1 vertebral body on which feeders from multiple segmental arteries converged. The most distinctive feature in our patient was that the fistula was located in the vertebral body. Transarterial embolization of the segmental arteries with coils and glue resulted in total oblitera...
متن کاملVertebral body infarction as a confirmatory sign of spinal cord ischemic stroke: report of three cases and review of the literature.
BACKGROUND Acute spontaneous spinal cord syndromes often remain etiologically ambiguous despite extensive diagnostic efforts. In the previous literature five cases are described with acute spinal cord syndromes interpreted as spinal cord ischemic strokes because of association with vertebral body infarctions on MRI. CASE DESCRIPTIONS Three cases are presented, and the literature is reviewed. ...
متن کاملSpinal cord infarction: a highly reproducible stroke model.
The study of focal central nervous system ischemia has been impeded by the lack of animal models that are both reproducible and simulate human ischemic strokes. To circumvent these problems, we have developed a rabbit spinal cord infarction model. Infarction of the caudal lumbar cord is produced by temporary occlusion of the abdominal aorta below the renal arteries. One hour of ischemia causes ...
