Spinal arteriovenous malformations appear in concurrence with cutaneous vascular lesions within the corresponding dermatome. Dermatome specific port wine stain upon the trunk, arteriovenous malformation, angioma, angiokeratoma, angiolipoma, cavernous haemangioma or lymphatic malformation is discerned in accompaniment with (MRI),hyperreflexia, computerized limb paresis, tomography muscular (CT) cramps, scan, plain sensory radiography loss, bladder or angiography. and bowel dysfunction, Cobb syndrome sudden can paraplegia be appropriately or subarachnoid managed haemorrhage. Spinal vascular lesions of Cobb syndrome can be adequately determined with magnetic resonance imaging with sclerotherapy, endovascular embolization, oral corticosteroids or surgical extermination of vascular lesions.

We report the case of a 14-year-old boy who presented with sudden onset paraplegia. Physical examination showed port-wine stains over buttock and thigh. Magnetic resonance (MR) angiogram of the dorso-lumbar spine revealed a large arteriovenous malformation (AVM) at D -D to L -L levels. These concurrent findings led to the diagnosis of Cobb’s Corresponding Author: 11 12 2 3 syndrome. The patient received orally administered prednisolone therapy and underwent endovascular Sayantan Ray embolization of spinal angioma.

INTRODUCTION • Cobb syndrome, or cutaneomeningospinal angiomatosis, is a nonfamilial neurocutaneous disorder characterized by spinal vascular abnormalities in association with a vascular lesion of the skin at the same metamere.1,2 • More recently, was recognized to be a part of a larger group of multiple arteriovenous shunts with metameric link, and the syndrome has been renamed to “spinal arteriovenous metameric syndrome” (SAMS)3 • Patients are diagnosed at any age but most commonly in late childhood and typically after the onset of neurologic symptoms such as paraplegia, quadriplegia, back pain, and, less frequently, fatigue due to heart failure.4,5 1.
