  • Title: Complete paraplegia due to multiple intracerebral and spinal cavernomas.
    Author: Parsch D, Freund M, Gerner HJ.
    Journal: Spinal Cord; 1999 Jan; 37(1):62-4. PubMed ID: 10025699.
    Abstract:
    We report on a 29-year-old male patient with multiple intracerebral and spinal cavernomas. Bleeding in the thoracic cord at admission and additional bleeding which occurred 12 days later in the cervical cord resulted in complete paraplegia below thoracic level 4 (Th4). Four years earlier multiple cerebral cavernomas had been diagnosed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Based upon reported cases in the literature multiple intracerebral and spinal cavernomas are exceptional. Additionally, the clinical presentation in our case is uncommon.
