Dural arteriovenous malformation with abnormal parenchymal vessels: an autopsy study.

abstract：:We present the neuropathological findings in a female patient with clinically definite multiple sclerosis (MS), who at autopsy had multifocal amyloid deposits in the white matter of the brain without other signs of amyloidosis. The patient had relapsing/remitting MS between the ages of 26 and 45, and during her last 1...
