Magnetic resonance imaging of spinal dural arteriovenous fistula (SDAVF) shows longitudinally extensive spinal cord lesions mimicking neoplastic or inflammatory myelopathy. On positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT), we report two patients who showed focal 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in longitudinally extensive spinal cord lesions. These lesions were indistinguishable from tumors or myelitis but were finally diagnosed as SDAVF. Although PET/CT availability may be limited, in cases of myelopathy with diagnostic challenges, it is important to recognize that focal FDG uptake can be observed in SDAVF.
