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...

Oculodentodigitalis dysplasia (ODDD) is an extremely rare inherited disorder involving the development of the face, eyes, teeth and limbs. In addition, some patients develop neurological problems mostly a spastic paraparesis associated with white matter abnormalities on magnetic resonance imaging. This report describes a patient with epilepsy, a rare neurologic manifestation of this syndrome.

A former amateur diver presented with a progressive paraparesis. Thirteen years previously he had developed acute spinal cord dysfunction immediately after dry hyperbaric exposure. He had completely recovered motor function in the intervening period. No alternative reason for the later decline emerged from detailed investigation.

We describe a case presenting complaint of complete lower body paraparesis, which was discovered to have splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL). While paraneoplastic syndromes are more common in tumors, such as small cell lung cancer, very few reports exist on this condition with SMZL. We describe such a rare entity with a clinical course spanning twenty-four months after diagnosis.

A 42 year old Greek male with pseudo-pseudohypoparathyroidism presented with difficulty in walking and with lower limb weakness. His physical signs included short stature, thick neck, short fourth metacarpals and metatarsals, and a spastic paraparesis. Serum calcium and phosphate and parathyroid concentrations were normal. Myelography demonstrated compression of the cervical and lumbar cord in ...

As a cause of spinal cord compression, intramedullary spinal tuberculoma with central nervous system (CNS) involvement is rare. Aurthors report a 66-year-old female presented with multiple CNS tuberculomas including spinal intramedullary tuberculoma manifesting paraparesis and urinary dysfunction. We review the clinical menifestation and experiences of previous reported literature.

Pneumorrhachis, caused by intraspinal air, is an exceptional but important radiographic finding that is accompanied by different etiologies. Pneumorrhachis, by itself, is usually asymptomatic and gets reabsorbed spontaneously. Therefore, the patients with pneumorrhachis are mostly managed conservatively. We encountered a unique case of atypical traumatic pneumorrhachis accompanied by paraparesis.

Cavernous hemangiomas (CHs) can be found in all intracranial structures, especially the brain parenchyma. Most spinal are of vertebral origin. Spinal cavernous that do not hold vertebrae called "pure" types. Pure epidural (SECHs) very rare and account for approximately 4% lesions. Here is a case pure thoracic SECH detected 42-year-old female patient with progressive paraparesis sensory loss bel...
