  • Title: Multiple dural arteriovenous shunts in a 5-year-old boy.
    Author: Ushikoshi S, Kikuchi Y, Miyasaka K.
    Journal: AJNR Am J Neuroradiol; 1999 Apr; 20(4):728-30. PubMed ID: 10319990.
    Abstract:
    We describe a rare case of multiple dural arteriovenous shunts (DAVSs) in a 5-year-old boy. MR imaging performed at 1 year of age showed only a dilated anterior part of the superior sagittal sinus; however, angiography at 5 years of age revealed an infantile-type DAVS there and two other DAVSs of the adult type. The pathophysiological evolution of DAVSs in children and their treatment strategies are discussed.
