Intracranial arteriovenous malformations. Observations after experience with computerised tomography.
Thirty-six patients with angiographically confirmed intracranial arteriovenous malformations have had computerised tomographic scans performed as part of their investigation. This study demonstrates the incidence of haematoma formation after haemorrhage, the frequency of calcification not visible on plain radiographs, and describes the possible causes for a complicating hydrocephalus. Further i...
متن کاملIntracranial arteriovenous malformations in Malaysian population.
Thirty-four patients with intracranial arteriovenous malformations seen in the University Hospital, Kuala Lumpur, over a is-year period were reviewed. A VM was found to be more common in young, male patients with preponderance Chinese origin. The advent of the Cl-scan has increased the detection of small A VMs and intracerebral haematomas proportionally. The majority of the lesions were situate...
متن کاملDiagnosis and evaluation of intracranial arteriovenous malformations
BACKGROUND Ideal management of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) remains poorly defined. Decisions regarding management of AVMs are based on the expected natural history of the lesion and risk prediction for peritreatment morbidity. Microsurgical resection, stereotactic radiosurgery, and endovascular embolization alone or in combination are all viable treatment options, each with ...
متن کاملStereotactic radiosurgery of intracranial arteriovenous malformations.
Stereotactic radiosurgery for intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) has been performed since the 1970s. When an AVM is treated with radiosurgery, radiation injury to the vascular endothelium induces the proliferation of smooth muscle cells and the elaboration of extracellular collagen, which leads to progressive stenosis and obliteration of the AVM nidus. Obliteration after AVM radios...
متن کاملEndovascular treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformations with onyx: technical aspects.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We report our experiences in the treatment of intracranial arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) with Onyx embolization before neuro- or radiosurgery, focusing on the embolization technique with Onyx. METHODS Ninety-three patients (40 women and 53 men, mean age 38 years) with 94 intracranial AVMs with a mean volume of 9.2 mL were embolized with Onyx. The following features...
