Its natural history and impact on clinical outcomes, compared with nonmetameric spinal cord arteriovenous malformations, remain unclear.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>METHODS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This retrospective, single-center study included 253 patients with intradural spinal cord arteriovenous malformations between 2002 and 2024, that have either not been considered for embolization or followed up during the period before embolization. This study aimed to evaluate the natural history of SAMS and identify the risk factors for clinical worsening, hemorrhagic events, and angiographic worsening during observation. A stratified log-rank test and Cox proportional hazards model were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CI.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>RESULTS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In the overall population, the median age of onset was 24 years, females accounted for 130 patients (51.3%), and the median observational period was 19 months. This cohort included 71 patients with SAMS and 182 without SAMS. The 10-year cumulative rates of clinical worsening were 27.0% in the metameric and 18.0% in the nonmetameric group. The risk of clinical worsening and hemorrhagic events did not show statistically significant differences between the 2 groups (HR, 1.71 [95% CI, 0.83\u20133.54];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.137 and HR, 1.65 [95% CI, 0.75\u20133.61];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.199). The metameric group with hemorrhagic onset had the highest risk of experiencing hemorrhagic events compared with the nonmetameric group without hemorrhagic onset (HR, 4.87 [95% CI, 1.35\u201317.53];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.015). The metameric group exhibited significantly higher rates of angiographic worsening compared with the nonmetameric group (HR, 11.37 [95% CI, 1.32\u201397.78];\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      =0.005). The presence of nonspinal cord-associated metameric lesions did not significantly affect the natural history of SAMS.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSIONS:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>SAMS had higher angiographic worsening than non-SAMS. Hemorrhagic onset in SAMS was an independent predictor of rebleeding during observation, without any influence of nonspinal cord-associated metameric lesions. Close radiological follow-up and early intervention, particularly for hemorrhagic-onset cases, may be necessary to improve outcomes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1161\/strokeaha.125.051848","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,10,17]],"date-time":"2025-10-17T09:01:13Z","timestamp":1760691673000},"page":"107-115","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1161\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Natural History of Metameric Spinal Cord Arteriovenous Malformations"],"prefix":"10.1161","volume":"57","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0323-6628","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Bikei","family":"Ryu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."},{"name":"Department of Neuroendovascular Therapy, St. Luke\u2019s International Hospital, Tokyo, Japan (B.R.)."},{"name":"Department of Neurosurgery, Tokyo Women\u2019s Medical University, Japan (B.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6640-8541","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Arturo","family":"Consoli","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0834-644X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Alessandro","family":"Sgreccia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Silvia","family":"Pizzuto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6486-1710","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Stanislas","family":"Smajda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Radiology, Section of Neuroradiology, Cliniques Universitaires Saint Luc, Brussels, Belgium (S.S.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Federico","family":"Di Maria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Georges","family":"Rodesch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Diagnostic and Therapeutic Neuroradiology, H\u00f4pital Foch, Suresnes, France (B.R., A.C., A.S., S.P., F.D.M., G.R.)."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/97.1.211"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3174\/ajnr.A4396"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/awz153"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3174\/ajnr.A3212"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","first-page":"374","article-title":"Classification of spinal cord arteriovenous shunts: proposal for a reappraisal--the Bic\u00eatre experience with 155 consecutive patients treated between 1981 and 1999.","volume":"51","author":"Rodesch G","year":"2002","unstructured":"Rodesch G, Hurth M, Alvarez H, Tadi\u00e9 M, Lasjaunias P.
