Spinal vascular diseases, though rare, include infarcts, cavernomas, and arteriovenous malformations. This overview details their imaging, symptoms, and treatments for better diagnosis and management.

Area of Science:

Neurology
Radiology
Vascular Medicine

Background:

Spinal vascular diseases are uncommon, representing 1-2% of all vascular neurologic conditions.
Accurate diagnosis and management are crucial for patient outcomes.

Purpose of the Study:

To provide a comprehensive overview of rare spinal vascular diseases.
To detail imaging features, clinical presentations, and therapeutic strategies.

Main Methods:

Review of imaging modalities including MRI, MR angiography, and digital subtraction angiography.
Discussion of clinical differential diagnoses and neurological symptomatology.

Main Results:

Detailed description of spinal arterial infarcts, spinal cavernomas, and arteriovenous malformations (perimedullary fistulae, glomerular arteriovenous malformations).

Conclusions:

Spinal vascular diseases require a multidisciplinary approach for diagnosis and treatment.
Understanding imaging features is key to differentiating these rare conditions.
