Vascular malformation
5.Objective: To assess the clinical significance of DSA in vascular malformation of the spinal cord.
6.In cases of vascular malformation, the presence of a signal void caused by vascular structures containing flowing blood is a clue to the diagnosis.
7.Objective The surgical treatment, approaches and result in ten patients with brain stem vascular malformation(BVM) was reported.
8.Partly because of high sensitivity to flow in vascular structures, MR represents a significant advance in the non-invasive assessment of patients suspected of vascular malformation.
9.The microscopic appearance of this vascular malformation reveals the dilated, tortuous, worm-like vascular channels. Such lesions may bleed a small amount and be the cause for a seizure disorder.
10.Vascular malformation can be found in various parts of the central nervous system and usually presents with headache, seizures, and focal neurological deficit.
