- Abstract
- A 68-year-old man developed mild quadriparesis 1 month prior to presentation. At 4 days before presentation, he
developed dysarthria and more severe quadriparesis, predominantly on the left side of the body. MRI revealed
edematous lesions in the medulla and throughout the spinal cord. Angiography showed a right tentorial dural
arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). Despite successful treatment achieved by endovascular embolization, there was no
improvement in the weakness of either leg. Early diagnosis of tentorial DAVF is important to prevent neurological
complications such as encephalomyelopathy and hemorrhage. Key Words: Encephalomyelopathy, Dural arteriovenous fistula, Embolization
