Spinal vascular lesions are rare yet treatable. Good patient outcomes depend on quick recognition of stepwise symptoms and referral to specialists who can use advanced imaging and other tests. That is where Jesse Jones, MD, and Will Meador, MD, come in, with the most advanced diagnostic, treatment, and recovery techniques in neurosurgery. They discuss the pathologies of vascular lesions and closely related disorders, as well as the relative severity of these diagnoses. After explaining diagnostic methods, from simplest to most complex (i.e., spinal angiogram) methods, they describe surgical and endovascular approaches to treatment. Learn more about the urgency of treating these often-complex diagnoses and the recovery outlooks for patients who receive them.
