Clinical and radiographic features of dural arteriovenous fistula, a treatable cause of myelopathy

Objective: To assess presentation, imaging, treatment, and outcome of patients with myelopathy due to a dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF).

Patients and Methods: This retrospective review identified 94 patients with DAVF surgically treated at our institution between June 1985 and December 1999. The mean ages of the 75 men and 19 women were 62.6 years and 63.0 years, respectively (range, 31-83 years). Magnetic resonance imaging was performed in 87 patients, computed tomography-myelography was performed in 37 patients, and spinal angiography was performed in all patients. Initial examination findings were retrospectively adjusted to a modified Aminoff-Logue myelopathy scale.
