Goldenhar Syndrome Associated with Extensive Arterial Malformations

Goldenhar Syndrome is characterized by craniofacial, ocular and vertebral defects secondary to abnormal development of the 1st and 2nd branchial arches and vertebrae. Other findings include cardiac and vascular abnormalities. Though these associations are known, the specific anomalies are not well defined. We present a 7-month-old infant with intermittent respiratory distress that did not impro...

Contribution to the hemodynamics of arterial venous malformations.

Contribution to the Hemodynamics of Arterial Venous Malformations • In three cases of arteriovenous malformations (AVMs), and in one postoperative case, the passage of an I.V.-administered 99m-Technetium bolus through the brain and the Xenon clearance after intracarotid injection from different brain areas were observed, using a scintillation camera-1600 channel memorydigital magnetic tape unit...

Extensive Renal Arteriovenous Malformations Treated by Transcatheter Arterial Embolization

An 84-year-old woman was referred to our department due to gross hematuria. Enhanced computed tomography revealed early enhancement of the right renal vein and multiple tortuous vessels around the right renal hilus, part of which had invaded into the renal parenchyma and renal calix. We diagnosed her with arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) and performed transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE)...

Concurrent arterial aneurysms in brain arteriovenous malformations with haemorrhagic presentation.

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of concurrent arterial aneurysms on the risk of incident haemorrhage from brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). METHODS In a cross sectional study, 463 consecutive, prospectively enrolled patients from the Columbia AVM Databank were analysed. Concurrent arterial aneurysms on brain angiography were classified as feeding artery aneurysms, intranidal aneurysms,...
