Transarterial Embolization of Intracranial Dural Arteriovenous Fistulas Cognard Type V With Direct Drainage Into the Perimedullary Veins: Case Report and Literature Review.

Background And Importance: Cognard type V fistula (CVF) is a rare type of dural arteriovenous fistula characterized by spinal perimedullary venous drainage. Owing to the lack of pathognomonic findings, misdiagnosis is common. Patients often undergo multiple spinal angiograms negative for spinal vascular malformations.

Sphenoidal meningoencephalocele associated with CSF fistula and arteriovenous malformation Spetzler-Martin V: A case report.

Cerebral Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) are presumed congenital anomalies of the blood vessels, which can increase intracranial pressure by uncertain mechanisms. We report the rare case of a 55-year-old male patient who complained about CSF rhinorrhea. Persisting CSF leakage prompted CT, which evidenced a bone defect in the right middle cranial fossa with protruding brain tissue.

Association between Paraoxonase-1 p.Q192R Polymorphism and Coronary Artery Disease susceptibility in the Colombian Population.

Background: Paraoxonase-1 (PON1), a glycoprotein associated with serum high-density lipoprotein (HDL), has a central role in metabolizing lipid peroxides, exhibiting antiatherogenic properties. The polymorphism p.Q192R has been previously associated with coronary artery disease (CAD) susceptibility and clopidogrel response.
