Spinal perimedullary arteriovenous fistulas (PMAVFs) are rare entities among vascular malformations of the spinal cord. Due to progressive myelopathy, spastic paresis, sensory disturbance, and bowl and bladder dysfunction can be the presenting symptoms. Cervical spinal arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) are even rarer. These lesions differ from the ones in the thoracolumbar region and have an even wider mode of presentation. We report on a 9-year-old boy with a cervical PMAVF manifesting with headache and vertigo.
脊髓髓周动静脉瘘(PMAVF)在脊髓血管畸形中较为罕见。由于进行性脊髓病,痉挛性轻瘫、感觉障碍以及大小便功能障碍可能是其首发症状。颈段脊髓动静脉瘘(AVF)更为罕见。这些病变与胸腰段的病变不同,其表现形式更为多样。我们报告一例9岁男性患儿,患有颈段PMAVF,表现为头痛和眩晕。
