Article Synopsis
- Peri-medullary arteriovenous fistula (PMAVF) is a rare spinal vascular condition that can cause serious neurological issues or bleeding in the spinal canal.
- A case study of a 2-year-old boy with high-flow PMAVF showed significant improvement in his motor strength after a successful transarterial endovascular treatment targeting a single feeder artery.
- PMAVFs typically feature multiple feeder arteries but this case was unique due to its single feeder artery and large venous pouch, highlighting the effectiveness of endovascular intervention as a primary treatment option for this type of malformation.
Persistent double dorsal aorta is a rare congenital anomaly of the descending aorta in which the descending aorta is divided into 2 lumens below the ligamentum arteriosum. There are only a few cases reported to date. A 52-year-old female presented with right ptosis since 2 months prior.

Although it has been agreed upon that definitive treatment using either single or multi-modal approach is warranted for successful bAVM management, much debate still revolves regarding the optimal timing of definitive treatment.
Case Summary: In this report, we present a case of delayed, definitive endovascular treatment for ruptured bAVM in a 21-year-old female, 3 mo post-ictus.
Background: Nasopharyngeal Angiofibroma is a rare neoplasm in the sphenopalatine foramen. This tumour is histologically benign, but clinically malignant because it can erode the bone and surrounding structures, such as the pterygopalatine fossa, paranasal sinuses, and nasal cavity. It is a highly vascular tumour, sometimes from multiple Feeding arteries, and tends to bleed easily.
