Tumefactive demyelination associated with developmental venous anomaly: Report of two cases

Tumefactive demyelination associated with developmental venous anomaly: Report of two cases CLINICAL IMAGING Ma, M., Chen, J. Y., Plowey, E. D., Fischbein, N., Iv, M. 2017; 43: 194-198

Abstract

We present two cases of tumefactive demyelination (TD) occurring in close association with a developmental venous anomaly (DVA). Our purpose is to describe the association between demyelinating lesions and venous anomalies, as only one case of TD associated with a DVA has been published in the literature. Appropriate recognition of this "do not touch" lesion may avoid invasive and potentially harmful procedures such as biopsy or resection.
