Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is an age-related small vessel disease pathologically characterized by the progressive accumulation of amyloid-beta (Aβ) peptide in cerebrovascular walls, affecting both cortical and leptomeningeal vessels. Amyloid deposition results in fragile vessels, which may lead to lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and cognitive impairment. To evaluate the probability and severity of CAA, the imaging markers depicted on CT and MRI techniques are crucial, as brain pathological examination is highly invasive.

Background And Objectives: This study aims to report the clinical, biological, and imaging features of cross-sectional study of neurosyphilis patients with leptomeningeal enhancement of spinal cord. Here, 51 neurosyphilis patients with leptomeningeal enhancement of spinal cord positivity are described, offering a promise in terms of early diagnosis, thereby enabling timely detection and treatment.
Methods: We retrospectively included all neurosyphilis patients enrolled in this study from December 2019 to January 2024.

Rheumatoid meningitis (RM) presents with sufficiently wide-ranging, but non-specific, symptoms and neuroimaging features of pachy- and/or leptomeningeal thickening that it may be indistinguishable from subacute infectious meningitis. RA diagnosis variably antedates RM and serological confirmation by rheumatoid factor and anti-citrullinated peptide antibodies may not be present preoperatively. Thus, meningeal biopsy may be undertaken.

In the elderly, cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is the most common cause for intracranial lobar hemorrhages. CAA is caused by the accumulation of amyloid-β fibrils in cortical and leptomeningeal vessels. In 2022, the Boston Criteria 2.
