متن کاملCASE REPORT Spinal dural arteriovenous fistula in a case with lipomyelodys- plasia
Coexistence of a spinal dural arteriovenous fistula within a dysraphic spinal lesion is a very rare situation. We report a 40-year-old man who presented with low back pain and progressive paraparesis. MR images showed an intradural high signal intensity mass at the L2–L3 level containing irregular signal void structures. Spinal angiography revealed extradural arteriovenous fistula with three co...
متن کاملA case report of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula: origins, determinants, and consequences of abnormal vascular malformations
A spinal dural arteriovenous fistula is an abnormally layered connection between radicular arteries and venous plexus of the spinal cord. This vascular condition is relatively rare with an incidence of 5-10 cases per million in the general population. Diagnosis of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula is differentiated by contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography or structural magnetic reso...
