Abstract

Widening of an intervertebral foramen in the cervical spine is a striking radiogical finding and generally denotes a patient with a dumbbell spinal tumor. Other, rare causes can also produce widening, such as expansion, tortuosity or elongation of the vertebral arteries, and congenital absence of a pedicle.

Diagnosis of aortic coarctation by tardus-parvus renal artery Doppler signal in an infant with multicystic dysplastic kidney: a case report.

We report an infant with known unilateral multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) who underwent renal ultrasonography and Doppler spectral waveform analysis for investigation of hypertension. A tardus-parvus waveform was demonstrated in the renal artery on the normal side suggesting either renal artery or more proximal stenosis. Coarctation of the aorta was subsequently demonstrated.

Moyamoya disease associated with midaortic syndrome.

We report a 1-year-old girl who presented moyamoya disease associated with midaortic syndrome. She had been treated for cardiac failure and severe hypertension due to midaortic syndrome until she suffered seizure and repeated cerebral ischemic attack. Cerebral angiography revealed stenosis of the bilateral internal carotid artery at its terminal portion. She was successfully treated with encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis, and ischemic attack ceased postoperatively. This is the first report of moyamoya disease with midaortic syndrome. Although cerebral ischemic attack has been effectively managed by encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis, renovascular hypertension is still difficult to control.
