Abstract:
:Twelve patients with vascular malformations of the spinal cord have been treated by embolization at the Neuroradiological Department of the Ospedale Maggiore Niguarda Cà Granda from September 1981 to February 1984. Different materials and techniques have been used, including liophylised dura, Ivalon (PVA) and Isobutyl Cianoacrylate. All types of malformations have been encountered: dural AV fistulae, intramedullary AVMs, intradural extramedullary AV fistulae, extradural AVMs with intradural venous drainage. Nine patients improved following treatment and three remained unchanged. Embolization can be an alternative treatment to surgery and it is the treatment of choice in dural AV fistulae.
