In 2005, we treated such a case via transvenous approach using coils and N-buty-2- cyanoacrylate (NBCA). The causes of recurrent cavernous sinus DAVF and its endovascular approach are discussed.展开更多

Most patients with PMAVF present with a progressive myelopathy caused by venous hypertension, resulting in disabling deficits and incurable complete transverse myelopathy. The lesion is usually located on the surface of the spinal cord or under the pia mater at the level of the conus medullaris or cauda equina, thoracic PMAVF is rarely encountered. Most PMAVFs are fed by the anterior spinal artery (ASA), posterior spinal artery (PSA), or both Multiple arterial feeders from the ASA can make the treatment of the disease difficult From August 2004 to February 2005, we treated a patient with a recurrent PMAVF (type Ⅳb) at the thoracic level with multiple blood supply.展开更多
