Efficacy of Enhanced MRI in Epidural Varix - Report of Six Cases -

Abstract: Symptomatic epidural varix presenting with radiculopathy is extremely rare. The most common misdiagnosis is reported as a sequestrated prolapsed nucleus pulposus in the preoperative evaluation. The method of evaluating enhanced MRI studies improved the efficacy of discovery and treatment of this condition. We experienced 6 cases of epidural varices that were diagnosed with T1 fat suppressed post-gadolinium enhanced MRI studies and we present the operative findings. 서 론 경막외 정맥류에 의한 하지 방사통은 매우 드문 것으 로 알려져 있다. 경막… Show more

“…LEV is challenging to diagnose because of clinicians' unfamiliarity with the disease and its variable findings on MRI, which are attributed to diversiform thrombosed or flowing blood states. Three core MRI findings have been proposed in the literature: an epidural mass of intermediate signal intensity, serpiginous dilated veins, and notable lumbar segmental veins [4]. Slin'ko and Al-Qashqish [1] described the MRI findings more specifically.…”
