  • Title: [Intramedullary cavernous angioma of the spinal cord: case report].
    Author: Pedreira AV, Silva CI, Freitas FJ, Barbosa VA, Machado MA.
    Journal: Arq Neuropsiquiatr; 2004 Jun; 62(2A):360-2. PubMed ID: 15235747.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of intramedullary cavernous angioma in a 56 years old woman with history of back pain. MRI show discal protrusion and disclose an intramedullary lesion, with heterogeneous sinal. The MRI is more sensitive than CT and the most appropriate technique is the sequence eco-gradient. The diagnosis is relevant because there is a possibility of acute neurological deficit and it is frequently accompanied by cranial cavernous angiomas.
