Abstract: | Spinal cord arteriovenous malformations encompass a variety of distinct lesions with aberrant connections between the arterial and venous circulation. Symptomatology and clinical presentation of such lesions are directly related to their location and particular pathophysiology. In the authors' surgical experience, 90% of patients have had the same or improved neurologic function and long-term follow-up. |
