Popis: Abstract Spinal dural arteriovenous fistulas (SDAVFs) are the most common type of spinal vascular malformations (AVMs), constituting approximately 70% of all spinal AVMs. The impact of various clinical and radiologic features on the outcomes in patients with SDAVFs is still controversial. The purpose of the study is to investigate the clinical outcomes and prognostic factors in patients with surgically treated SDAVFs in a single center. A retrospective review was performed for all patients with SDAVFs from January 2013 to September 2021 who underwent surgery at our institution. Medical records and pre- and postoperative imaging data were analyzed. Neurological function status was evaluated by modified Aminoff-Logue Scale (mALS). Student’s t-test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, χ2 test and logistic regression were used to find significant prognostic factors. P values
