Virchow-Robin Spaces: Correlations with Polysomnography-Derived Sleep Parameters.
STUDY OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that enlarged Virchow-Robin space volumes (VRS) are associated with objective measures of poor quality sleep. DESIGN Retrospective cross-sectional study. SETTING Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre. PATIENTS Twenty-six patients being evaluated for cerebrovascular disease were assessed using polysomnography and high-resolution structural magnetic reson...
متن کاملLarge Virchow-Robin spaces: MR-clinical correlation.
High-field MR scans frequently show Virchow-Robin spaces, which conform to the path of the penetrating arteries as they enter either the basal ganglia or the cortical gray matter over the high convexities. A retrospective review of 816 MR scans was undertaken to determine the clinical significance and associations (if any) of this finding. The Virchow-Robin spaces were graded, as were the nonsp...
متن کاملParkinsonism and Dementia Associated with Giant Virchow-Robin Spaces
Most patients with GVRSs in the high cerebral convexity exhibit no neurological deficits,1,3-5 including motor and sensory evoked potential studies.3 We present a patient who developed parkinsonism and dementia associated with GVRSs. Positron emission tomography (PET) studies showed normal striatal dopamine transporter uptake, but reduced glucose metabolism in the cerebral cortex and right thal...
متن کاملGiant cystic widening of Virchow-Robin spaces: an anatomofunctional study.
We describe 2 patients with unusual white matter cystic dilations, which could correspond to widening of the perivascular spaces. They underwent morphologic MR imaging with tractography, functional MR imaging (fMRI), and neuropsychological evaluation. fMRI examination showed no functional reorganization of cortical areas. Tractography showed an apparent decrease of white matter tract vectors in...
متن کاملObstructive hydrocephalus due to cavernous dilation of Virchow-Robin spaces.
A 10-year-old girl presented with a 4-month history of headache and with a normal examination. MRI showed a multi-cyst mesencephalic lesion isointense relative to CSF on all sequences; there was mass effect on the aqueduct with obstructive hydrocephalus (figure). Infections, tumors, and epidermoid cyst were considered, but the characteristic location along the path of a penetrating vessel and m...
