The Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS) are subpial invaginations making a tubular revestment scabbard that contains a vase between the subarachnoid and subpial spaces. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the only imaging method able for evaluate this anatomic detail. We studied the possible association
Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS) are pia-lined extensions of the subarachnoid space which surround penetrating arteries as they enter the brain on its surface. Using high-resolution MRI, which shows small penetrating arteries, we studied a possible association of accentuated VRS in children with
BACKGROUND
Virchow-Robin spaces (VRS) or perivascular spaces are interstitial cystic spaces surrounding the vasculature of brain parenchyma and course from the subarachnoid space. Small VRS (<2 mm) appear in all age groups, but can enlarge and be confused with other lesions like cystic neoplasms.
BACKGROUND
Obstructive hydrocephalus secondary to enlarged Virchow-Robin Spaces (VRS) is a rare entity, with only a few cases reported in the literature. Presenting symptoms vary widely from headaches to dizziness.
METHODS
We report a case of a 31-year-old man who presented with pulsatile tinnitus
BACKGROUND
Virchow Robin spaces (VRSs) are perivascular spaces that act as drainage pathways for interstitial fluid. Dilatation of VRSs is visible on magnetic resonance images in asymptomatic individuals. However, giant dilatation of VRSs (dVRSs) is very rare. Such giant dVRSs may produce a pressure
OBJECTIVE
The distinctive hyperintensity of multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions on T2-weighted brain MR images is well recognized. However, Virchow-Robin spaces (VRSs), especially in early MS, have not been described. Our purpose was to determine the frequency of VRSs in recent-onset MS.
METHODS
Brain
OBJECTIVE
To assess the frequency and extent of dilatation of Virchow-Robin (VR) spaces at three levels of the brain in patients of Arab ethnicity in Kuwait recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS) and compare the results with age- and gender-matched controls.
METHODS
The magnetic resonance
This study was conducted to compare the efficacy of intravenous diphenhydramine with dihydroergotamine mesylate (DHE-45; Novartis International AG, Switzerland) in the treatment of severe, refractory, migraine headache. A retrospective review was conducted to include eighty randomly chosen patients
In childhood, widening of Virchow-Robin spaces is rarely secondary to specific progressive disorders, but more often appears in poorly characterized developmental conditions. From data collected in a neuropediatric department, we examined whether clinical data associated with "constitutional
OBJECTIVE
To determine the prevalence and clinical significance of dilated Virchow-Robin spaces in pediatric patients.
METHODS
Cranial magnetic resonance (MR) studies of 1,250 children who underwent imaging during 12 consecutive months were prospectively evaluated.
RESULTS
Thirty-seven patients had
OBJECTIVE
Virchow-Robin spaces are pia-lined extensions of the subarachnoid space surrounding the path of brain vessels. When enlarged, such dilated perivascular spaces are often seen as foci of cerebrospinal fluid signal on MRI or CT scan. These foci are found in patients with miscellaneous
METHODS
Pierre-Robin syndrome (PRS) is a rare congenital malformation that shows severe micrognathia and cleft soft palate. A 15-year-old boy who was admitted with occipital headache and gait disturbance was diagnosed with PRS. Radiological evaluation revealed severe herniation of the cerebellar
OBJECTIVE
To assess the utility of neuroimaging in the evaluation of children presenting with two of the most common forms of headache, migraine and chronic daily headache, and to determine the utility and pathological yield of neuroimaging in specific headache syndromes in children whose
OBJECTIVE
Dilated Virchow-Robin spaces (dVRs) have been revealed by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in patients with various neurological disorders. However, their etiology and clinical importance have not been discovered yet. The aim of the study was to estimate dVRs occurrence in hospitalized
OBJECTIVE
To study the frequency of "benign" abnormalities on brain imaging in children with headache, compare it with the frequency of imaging findings that dictate a change in patient management, and determine the association of benign findings with headache.
METHODS
A database of 681 headache
