Duodenal ulcer caused by coil wiggle after digital subtraction angiography-guided embolization: A case report

Arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) of the scrotum are rare lesions, usually diagnosed incidentally during the evaluation of scrotal masses or infertility. It could be presented with acute bleeding or acute pain. We are presenting a case of painless bilateral infiltrated scrotal mass (more advanced in the left side) developed dramatically over a year, no other symptoms existed. The diagnosis was made using duplex ultrasound (DUS), computed tomography arteriography (CTA), and digital subtraction angiography (DSA). Three sessions of angioembolization were performed and followed by surgical resection of the left side of the scrotum.

The Individual

The authors report the case of a 76-year-old man with a spinal dural arteriovenous fistula. The patient suffered from sudden repeated reversible paraplegia after spinal digital subtraction angiography as well as CT angiography. Neurotoxicity of contrast media (CM) is the most probable cause for this repeated short-lasting paraplegia. Intolerance to toxicity of CM to the vulnerable spinal cord is rare, and probably depends on the individual patient. This phenomenon is transient and can occur after both intraarterial and intravenous CM application.

Abstract OBJECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: Parenchymal perianeurysmal cysts are rare, and only seven cases have been reported. We present a case report with a 30 month follow-up on this topic. The possible etiopathogenetic mechanisms of cyst formation are discussed. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: A 54-year-old man with a 5–month history of headache and a computed tomography scan showing a giant parenchymal cyst located in the right temporal lobe with a mural enhanced nodule was admitted to our neurosurgical department with the diagnosis of cystic brain tumor. Magnetic resonance imaging followed by digital subtraction angiography identified the enhancing nodule as a large right middle cerebral artery aneurysm. INTERVENTION: Surgical treatment was performed; the aneurysm was clipped and the cyst evacuated. Postoperative digital subtraction angiography confirmed the clipping of the aneurysm at the neck. Serial magnetic resonance imaging controls showed the permanent collapse of the cyst. CONCLUSION: Parenchymal perianeurysmal cysts are rare. In the presence of parenchymal cysts neighboring main vessels, the possibility of a perianeurysmal cyst should be considered. In regard to the etiopathogenetic mechanisms responsible for the cyst development, the action of multiple coexisting factors seems to be the most applicable.
