Article Synopsis
- Parkinsonism from dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF) is uncommon but can be reversed through endovascular treatment.
- An 87-year-old woman experienced worsening parkinsonism symptoms linked to a DAVF, which was identified through advanced imaging techniques.
- After undergoing transarterial embolization (TAE) with Onyx, her symptoms improved, supporting previous findings that many cases of DAVF-related parkinsonism can respond well to similar treatments.
- This suggests that DAVF should be considered as a possible cause when diagnosing parkinsonism.
Purpose: The pediatric posterior fossa (PF) brain tumors with higher frequencies are embryonal tumors (ET), ependymal tumors (EPN) and pilocytic astrocytomas (PA), however, it is often difficult to make a differential diagnosis among them with conventional MRI. The ADC calculated from DWI could be beneficial for diagnostic work up.
Method: We acquired DWI at b = 1000 and 4000(s/mm).
