Abstract

Spinal arteriovenous malformation is a rare, congenital disease (excluding dural arteriovenous fistula, which is thought to be acquired). Once symptoms arise, the pathology is usually progressive, and spontaneous remission seldom occurs, leading to bedridden status. The technique of surgical intervention for pathological arteriovenous shunt is discussed in this chapter.

Both authors belonged to the Department of Neurosurgery, Hokkaido University Graduate School of Medicine, Sapporo, Japan. And both presented cases were treated in here.
