Abstract

Spinal cavernomas are rare pathologies that account 5% to 12% of spinal vascular abnormalities. Sensory or motor symptoms are most frequent followed by pain and bladder dysfunction. Since development of ultra-high resolution magnetic resonance imaging techniques and modern sequences like susceptibility-weighted imaging, spinal cavernous malformaions can be diagnosed more accurately. Surgical removal of a symptomatic cavernoma is suggested to prevent further neurological deterioration, but must be weighed against the potential risks of surgery. We represent a rare illustrative case of thoracal spinal intradural cavernoma associated with multiple intracranial cavernomas.

Özet

Spinal kavernomlar nadir görülen patolojilerden olup spinal vasküler patolojilerin %5 - %12' sini oluşturur. Görülen duyusal ve motor semptomları en sık ağrı ve mesane disfonksyonları takip eder. Yüksek çözünürlüklü ve modern manyetik rezonans görüntüleme tekniklerinin gelişmesiyle beraber spinal kavernöz malformasyonların tanısı artmıştır. Potansiyel cerrahi riskleri kabul edildiği takdirde semptomatik kavernomların nörolojik defisitin ilerlememesi için çıkarılması önerilir. Olgu sunumumuzda nadir görülen ve çoklu kranial kavernomların eşlik ettiği torakal spinal intradural intramedüller kavernom anlatılmaktadır.
