Value of magnetic resonance imaging in spontaneous extradural spinal hematoma due to vascular malformation: case report

V D'Angelo et al. Surg Neurol. 1990 Nov.

Abstract

A case of spinal cord compression due to spontaneous extradural spinal hematoma is reported. A spinal arteriovenous malformation was suspected on the basis of magnetic resonance imaging. Early surgical exploration allowed a complete neurological recovery. The vascular malformation was histopathologically confirmed. The role of magnetic resonance imaging in the evaluation of acute spinal cord compression syndromes is stressed.
