Abstract:
:A 29-year-old female with neurofibromatosis presented with a right lumbar lateral meningocele. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed a huge right retroperitoneal cyst expanding anterolaterally and displacing the right kidney. CT following myelography disclosed the cyst expanding through a wide defect of the right pedicles of the T-12 and L-1 vertebrae. The cyst was resected through a retroperitoneal approach with right flank oblique incision. Postoperatively, cerebrospinal fluid leakage occurred, which improved after lumboperitoneal shunt. Careful screening for lateral meningocele, including the lumbar region, should be undertaken in a patient with neurofibromatosis who presents with vertebral anomalies.

杂志文章abstract::We report a 30-year-old male case of an enlarged cerebellar arteriovenous malformation (AVM) associated with fenestration of the vertebral artery. Hemodynamic stress resulting from fenestration of the feeding system of AVM was probably an important factor in the enlargement of the small cerebellar AVM. ...
