Popis: | A newborn baby boy with a high-flow arteriovenous malformation (AVM) of the dorsal spinal cord is reported. The baby was born paraplegic. The myelogram suggested an increased vasculature, showing irregular worm-like radiolucent lesions of the dorsal spinal cord. Spinal angiography showed a huge arteriovenous angioma of the dorsal spinal cord with an intra-spinal aneurysmal sac. The vascular supply was decreased after two embolizations. This was followed by complete surgical resection of the aneurysmal sac. |
